How MADAME DU BARRY looked in Real Life (Louis XV's Mistress)- With Animations- Mortal Faces
Welcome to Mortal Faces! Inside this video I show you how I recreated Madame Du Barry (Jeanne Becu) (King Louis XV's mistress) into real life. My channel focuses on taking historic portraits and bringing them to life. I use my photoshop and technology skills (cinema 4d, and after effects) to give you my artistic interpretation on how I think these people might have looked real. Of course, all the renderings are my own opinion.
Check out Louis XV's Portrait Recreations: • How KING LOUIS XV & Hi...
I also add commentary about these people to make it easier for you to follow along and hopefully give you a better understanding about who these famous names were and what their deal was.
I think Madame Du Barry was a product of her birth. Born a nobody, when she became somebody, everyone else ridiculed her for her past. She had the King, who died. Then after that no real support line. She knew a lot of powerful people but that was mostly just business. When the King died she retired to her own lala land. When the revolution came, she only had her property and stuff. Those where her life’s work and all she had. When they were threatened, she held tight. She ran to London to save her jewels then ran back to France to save her house. She focused on her stuff and not what was happening around.
I will take recommendations as always so please leave a comment if you want me to do anyone specific for you. I always check.
Thanks for watching!

I was so happy to see what Madame Du Barry really looked like. So many of her portraits were dissimilar, but I feel you captured them all in one. Thank you for these wonderful travels back in time. ❤️

There's a documentary on here where they talk about Casanova's auto biography. And they tell you who he is, and they published his letters. Maybe if you get a name, he could do the recreation?

she was sooo beautiful, especially when she was very young. Thank you so much for your awesome work. Would also love to see other French mistresses like Diane de Poitiers, Gabrielle d'Estrees and Agnes Sorel for example
Thank you. She looks so much better animated than the paintings. It's very unfortunate that the director of the current film apparently cast herself as Du Barry instead of finding an oval faced young blonde.

Yeah I agree unfortunately a lot of films or series’s don’t stay true to beauty standards of the time. And the Jeanne Du Barry actress/director looks nothing like her 🙄 looking at a lot of portraits of the time. Delicate features were hailed whereas the actress in Jeanne Du Barry, her features are too dramatic.
Surprisingly she actually looked rather graceful when she was young. Her face radiates with flirtatious playfulness then.
The girl was just enjoying life 😂
I did not know her story. She looks much like Madame Du Pompadour. The king had a "type". Thanks for the wonderful recreation and narrative.
This channel is absolutely amazing.
I enjoy your interesting introductions to each person you animate, as well as the animations themselves. Bravo!
Thanks for all you do. Love the channel.
I'd love to see your video on Duchess of Devonshire, the beautiful Georgiana Spencer. Ancestor to Princess Diana. Thank you~
I adore your channel! It’s not just magic? It’s so much history! Bravo!!
Had no idea she was actually very pretty!! 😍
Great video!! Thank you!! You are a master in photoshop!!
Great content and delivery!
What an EXCELLENT VIDEO! You presented some facts that I hadn’t heard before about Du Berry! Also, I love how you narrate! You have a calm, quiet presentation! Thank you for your channel! 😊
its sad she was betrayed by her own servant due to him joining the Jacobin club
These are great. Thanks a lot
Great work, thanks.
Great job, very interesting story. Maybe Mme de Pompadour next?
I LOOOOVE ur videos! Especially ur humor n satire it makes re-learning history soo much more fun than the boring teachers in class presented them

My grandpa told us our ancestors were beheaded in the French revolution and were counts and countesses. Also one of us was at the "left hand of the king" which I guess was his side piece? So fascinating and I wish I knew their names.

I would like to see the Duke of Wellington come to life. Great renditions of past figures and you’re very talented.
Fascinating. I read a biography of Mme du Barry last year and felt sad that, as you say, because she had nothing as a girl, when the many possessions she accrued were at risk she desperately tried to keep them and it cost her her life. All of the portraits that you used were in the book and I thought to myself, 'She doesn't look that beautiful in these - what did the king see in her? But your work has shown that she was indeed beautiful. Well done, sir. You obviously need to be asked to do people of whom there are at least a few portraits in existence. How about Elizabeth I of England & Ireland?

"You obviously need to be asked to do people of whom there are at least a few portraits in existence. How about Elizabeth I of England & Ireland?" I think Elizabeth's mother, Anne Boleyn, would be a perfect candidate. There are scant contemporary illustrations of her, as most of them were destroyed after she was "executed" by her ex-husband in order to eliminate her existence from history.

Obviously when a woman is spoilt it's just a vice, but when such vanity makes her to envy the Queen's wealth to steal or fabricate the Queen's possessions as if hers, that is the crime that certainly deserves a punishment. 😀

I think its important to note that one of her servants who turned her in was a slave "given" to her by Louis XV when he was just a child. So tbh I can't exactly fault him for that

@@msmalice6007 No, but my family is verifiably descended from slaves in Jamaica snd my grandfather is from that place. We were given our surname and we were freed in the early 1800's, but the reasons how and why are unclear. Guess what? I don't hold any resentment for it. Why? Slavery was and is practiced by all races and religions throughout history. In the present day it is still practiced in North Africa and the historic Islamic slave trade is ignored by mainstream commentary. I suppose you topple statues in your spare time and fling paint and milkshakes at exhibits and people that trigger you?

@@bewilderedbrit8928 if your family had to (indirectly) kill their slaveowners to regain their freedom would you condemn them? you claim you were given your surname by them but what about the names they had prior to their enslavement? in the caribbean, the abolition of slavery came in large part due to the violent revolts and rebellions such as in haiti and even smaller ones in jamaica. it wasn't due to the kindness of slave owners hearts it was no longer profitable to have slave labour when the very nature of enslavement caused labour to revolt and even rebel. also you're the one bringing race into this since at no point did i point out the race of zamor who btw was from what is now modern day bangladesh. and if you're referencing libya re the modern day slave trade, note that prior to the nato backed civil war libya had some of the highest standards of living in the entire continent. however the ensuing power vacuum is whats allowed for the open air slave markets to exist. also "islamic slave trade" is totally ahistoric. its like calling the transatlantic slave trade the "christian slave trade" are we talking about slavery under the abbasids or the later ottoman slave trade that inherited their routes/practices from the byzantines. also have you considered that the reason "mainstream commentary" ignores these other slave trades is because you might be limiting yourself to media from the us/uk where the transatlantic slave trade was the most relevant? if you want discussions about the "islamic slave trade" look to countries such as morocco where indigenous berbers to this day discuss arab colonisation and the impact it has had on them.

just by looking at the Queen's and Louis 13's full name (grin)!
My guess is, as someone who has read Pamela, she chose one of the men panting after her for protection because she had no choice. History blames mistresses for a lot of things incredibly unfavorably, because no one forces a king to take mistresses. She's lovely, but there's something more than beauty in her face, intelligence perhaps? Kind of like the "it" factor some film stars have.
Encore un instant, Monsieur le bourreau..!
Hi would love to see Madame de Montespan , she was a reputed beauty You work is amazing Thank you
Good job, many guys here would have liked to have Madame Du Barry as mistress ! 😍😛

Oh my goodness what an awful 😢 ending for du Barry ! She was so beautiful 😻 too, she should have just layed low instead of traveling 🧳 back and forth from France 🇫🇷 to the UK 🇬🇧, those times were indeed dangerous and she didn’t think the revolution was as serious 🧐 and scary 😨 as it was ! Sad 😔 and tragic ending for her . I love ❤️ how you highlighted the timelines for du Barry she’s definitely an Icon and one of the most beautiful mistresses of the King 🤴

I enjoyed your work. About her, she was merrely pleasant but not beautiful. She did what she known the best... Tnx for sharing. By the way, on the way to the guillotine she started crying, shouting "you gonna harm me". The frenchmen did just that
Please do charlamaign
The very first picture looks like the actress Maisie Williams to me.
if M.A had befriended her instead hating her M.A 's life at Ver., M.A . 's life would have much easier .
