Adèle Hugo mother Adèle Foucher
Childhood
Adèle Hugo was raised in a cultured, affluent home in Paris, the youngest child of Adèle (née Foucher) and Victor Hugo, France's most famous writer. Adèle enjoyed playing the piano, and was known for her beauty and long dark hair. She sat for portraits by several well-known Parisian artists. In 1852, the Hugo family moved to the island of Jersey after Victor Hugo was forced into political exile. The Hugos remained on the Channel Islands until 1870. In Jersey, Adèle met Albert Pinson, the object of her obsession.
