I bookmarked this comment. It's beautiful

Thanks! It isvery likely a Eratigena Atrica. The pattern on its back is identical. I safely released it in the garden.
Big nasty spiders that bite you usually give you necrosis. Does that count?

I'm half joking, cases are so rare it's a non event.
Thank for your answer.
ITT I read that it could also be a radiated wolf spider. In any case it was big, bigger than other big a** spiders I found at this place. But what do I know, I'm definitely not a country person.
I just checked after this comment and they can been seen in France. Pretty unusual, still.
Sorry about that
Looks like a giant house spider. Another lemming suggested a brown recluse. One is harmless, and the other can kill you. Squach it or leave it, hard to tell.
This reminds me of my first account in Eve Online. I spent two hours in character creation, in awe with the graphics, hyped by what would come next...to never see my character in the game.
Character creation was just a glorified creation tool for HUD avatar.
The pain is real
