The title ‘Du comte de Féketé, chambellan de l’Impératrice-Reine’ is written in Voltaire’s hand.

The manuscript is a five-line poem titled ‘Le Hameau’. The verses celebrate the speaker’s idyllic village, describing it as the most beautiful place imaginable. They express a deep appreciation for the charming scenery and picturesque landscape, which they believe is ideal for Watteau’s paintings.

Voltaire responded to these verses in the same metre in his letter to M.Berger, written from the Château de Cirey and dated 29 January 1736 [D998].

This epic poem explores the mythological founding figures of Friesland, drawing inspiration from Voltaire’s Henriade. It stands as Jonkheer Willem van Haren’s most celebrated work.
