Professeur De Son Acad De Pint E Scul 1773”. The beautiful Jeanne Bécu, Comtesse du Barry, was the last chief mistress of King Louis XV of France and lived at Versailles. She was executed by guillotine during the French Revolution. This wonderful bust has been painted to give it the appearance of bronze and will make a handsome addition to a grand room. Dating to circa 1900, this is made of painted terracotta and originates from France.
