EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back in time to witness a harp lesson given by the esteemed Madame de Genlis to Mademoiselle d Orleans. The scene is filled with elegance and refinement, as these noble ladies engage in the pursuit of music. Madame de Genlis, born Stephanie Felicite du Crest, was not only a governess to the Orleans family but also an accomplished writer and educational theorist. Her expertise shines through as she guides her pupil with grace and precision. Meanwhile, Mademoiselle Pamela dutifully turns the pages of sheet music, providing invaluable support during this musical journey. The grandeur of Chateau de Versailles serves as a majestic backdrop for this intimate moment of learning. The vast canvas captures every intricate detail, allowing us to appreciate the opulence that surrounded these aristocratic figures. Adelaide d Orleans, sister of King Louis-Philippe I of France, sits attentively at the harp under Madame de Genlis' watchful eye. As they delve into harmonies and melodies together, their connection deepens beyond teacher and student. This painting not only showcases the beauty of music but also highlights the importance of education among high society during this era. It reminds us that knowledge knows no boundaries and can be shared across generations regardless of social status or gender.
