Felicitas de Saint-Maxent, condesa de Gálvez y virreina de la Nueva España, fue un personaje fascinante, que vivió a caballo entre el Antiguo y el Nuevo Régimen y ha sido, hasta ahora, increíble e injustamente olvidada. Hija de criollos de Nueva Orleans, y por tanto de origen y educación franceses, fue una mujer bella, inteligente y promotora de la cultura y las bellas artes a lo largo de toda su vida. Casó con el ilustre gobernador Bernardo de Gálvez, clave en la independencia de Estados Unidos, y que llegó a ser virrey de Nueva España. Al enviudar, se trasladó a Madrid, donde fue célebre como anfitriona de tertulias en las que participaban ilustres literatos y políticos, por las que llegó a ser tachada de afrancesada y finalmente desterrada.
Felicitas de Gálvez vivió una vida cuajada de pasión, originalidad e ilustración entre dos mundos, y simboliza el tornaviaje de todas aquellas mujeres que antes que ella marcharon a América buscando una oportunidad.
