EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures Marie Tussaud (1761-1850), the Swiss wax model maker, in her old age. Born in Strasbourg, France, Tussaud began her career as a wax sculptor in Paris at the age of 17, working under the tutelage of Philippe Curtius. She quickly gained renown for her lifelike and intricately detailed wax figures, which she exhibited in traveling shows throughout Europe. In this photograph, taken likely in the late 1840s or early 1850s, Tussaud is depicted in her later years, with a fur-lined cloak draped over her shoulders and a bonnet adorned with a ribbon securing a bow under her chin. She wears a pair of spectacles perched on the bridge of her nose, a common necessity for those with aging eyes. The image captures the intensity and focus that marked Tussaud's entire career, as she continued to create new wax figures even in her old age. Despite her advanced years, Tussaud remained dedicated to her craft, and her legacy as a pioneering figure in the history of wax modeling endures to this day. Her innovations in the use of wax to create lifelike figures paved the way for the modern wax museum, and her influence can be seen in the works of contemporary artists working in this medium. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who defied the conventions of her time and continued to create art well into her old age.
