Count Henry Jules Charles Emmanuel Greffulhe (25 December 1848 – 31 March 1932) was a French heir, socialite and politician.[1] He was the son of Louis-Charles Greffuhle and his wife, Félicité-Pauline-Marie de la Rochefoucauld d'Estissac.
He was a personal friend of author Marcel Proust.[2] He has been pointed out as one of the main inspirations for the character of the duc de Guermantes in Proust’s novel, À la recherche du temps perdu.[3]
