EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures Jeanne, Comtesse du Barry, the famous mistress of King Louis XV of France, in a tranquil garden setting with two adolescent girls. The year is estimated to be around 1770. Jeanne, dressed elegantly in a flowing robe and a fashionable hat adorned with feathers, sits on a stone bench, her eyes fixed on one of the girls. The young girl on the left, with an innocent expression on her face, is pretending to be a statue, frozen in place with her arms outstretched. The other girl, standing before her, seems to be imploring Jeanne for something, her hands clasped together in supplication. Jeanne du Barry, born in Bordeaux, rose to prominence in the French court through her beauty and charm. She became the king's mistress in 1768, a position she held until Louis XV's death in 1774. Despite her humble beginnings, she was known for her extravagant lifestyle and her love for the arts. The relationship between Jeanne and the two girls in the image is not clear, but it is not uncommon for aristocratic women of the time to take young girls under their wing and educate them in the arts of courtly life. The garden setting, with its lush greenery and dappled sunlight, adds to the idyllic atmosphere of the scene. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the private world of Jeanne, Comtesse du Barry, and offers a glimpse into the lives of the aristocracy during the late 18th century. The image is a testament to the power and allure of the French court, and the enduring fascination with the lives of its most famous inhabitants.
