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.

Thank you for your reply. I think this is it. It was indeed not aggressive. Now that I know it's inoffensive, I will be more careful in the future

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.

Thanks for the answer. Living in France. I didn't hear of dangerous species of spiders here. But this one had me look twice.
