Madame de Maintenon - Unveiling the Hidden Power
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This intriguing print captures a remarkable moment in history, revealing Madame de Maintenon disguised as a monk around 1690. The anonymous creator skillfully portrays this enigmatic figure who played an influential role during the era of absolutism in France. Madame de Maintenon, born Françoise d'Aubigné and later known as Marquise de Maintenon, was not only the wife of King Louis XIV but also his trusted advisor and confidante. This copper engraving offers a rare glimpse into her clandestine world, where she navigated the complex web of court politics with finesse. The artist's caricature-like style adds depth to this portrait, emphasizing Madame de Maintenon's cunning intellect and hidden power. Her disguise as a monk symbolizes her ability to blend seamlessly into different social circles while maintaining control behind closed doors. As we delve into this fine art image from the Collection of Bibliothèque Nationale de France, we are transported back to the modern age when nobility reigned supreme. King Louis XIV himself referred to Madame de Maintenon as "the Sun King" highlighting her significant influence on his reign. Through this photograph print, we are reminded that history is not always what it seems at first glance. It invites us to explore beyond surface appearances and uncover the untold stories of those who shaped our world.
