Marie Catherine Vitalie Rimbaud, néeCuif, was better known simply as Vitalie Rimbaud, and was the mother of the visionary poet Arthur Rimbaud. She was born on 10 March 1825 and died on 16 November 1907. She met Captain Frédéric Rimbaud (1814–1878), a French infantry officer, in October 1852 and married him the following February.[1] They had five children:
Nicolas Frédéric ("Frédéric"), born 2 November 1853[2]
Though the marriage lasted seven years, her husband lived continuously in the matrimonial home for less than three months, from February to May 1853.[4] The rest of the time Captain Rimbaud's military postings – including service in the Crimean War and the Sardinian Campaign[5] – meant he returned home to Charleville only when on leave.[4] He was not at home for his children's births, nor their baptisms.[4] After Isabelle's birth in 1860, Captain Rimbaud never returned to the family home.[6] After their separation, Mme, Rimbaud called herself "Widow Rimbaud".[6]
