Du Barry Drinks Coffee: A Moment of Indulgence in 18th Century France This image, titled "Du Barry Drinks Coffee," transports us back to the opulent and decadent court of King Louis XV of France in the late 18th century. The subject of the photograph is Jeanne Bécu, Comtesse du Barry, the king's notorious mistress, who is depicted in the height of luxury and leisure as she savors a cup of coffee. The scene is set in an elegant and ornate chamber, adorned with rich fabrics, gilded furnishings, and an abundance of natural light filtering in through the tall windows. Du Barry, dressed in a sumptuous robe and wearing a diamond-encrusted tiara, sits on a velvet-covered chair, her posture regal and confident. Her page, dressed in the livery of the royal court, stands attentively behind her, holding a tray laden with a steaming cup of coffee and a delicate porcelain saucer. Coffee, which had only recently been introduced to Europe from its origins in the Middle East, had become a fashionable and desirable beverage among the European elite. Du Barry's enjoyment of this exotic drink further solidified her image as a woman of refined tastes and extravagant indulgences. This photograph, taken circa 1770, offers a glimpse into the lavish lifestyle of one of the most intriguing figures of the French monarchy. It is a testament to the power and allure of the court, and the enduring appeal of the simple pleasure of a cup of coffee.
