AI overview

Madame du Barry was a French noblewoman who became the last mistress of King Louis XV, holding significant influence at court from 1768 until his death in 1774. Her story matters because she exemplifies the political power wielded by royal mistresses in 18th-century France and the dramatic reversals of fortune that could follow a monarch's reign—she was executed during the French Revolution in 1793.
