Jeanne Bécu, Comtesse Du Barry, Being Offered a Cup of Coffee by Zamor

Französische Grafik 1762–1775, 1771

The painting depicts a woman from the waist up, sitting on a chair with crossed legs. She has a round face, light skin, rosy cheeks, and her expression faces the viewer. Her hair is styled in an elaborate manner typical of the period, likely powdered and arranged upwards. She wears a white garment with lace details and holds a teacup and saucer. A man in a colorful coat and blue feathered turban is serving her, holding a tray with a small kettle. In the background are draped green and beige curtains, suggesting a setting with a canopy or bed. The scene exudes an atmosphere of luxury.
