EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures Louise Adelaide Orleans, Mademoiselle de Chartres, in her later years as the revered Abbess of Chelles. Born in 1698 into the esteemed House of Bourbon, Louise Adelaide was the daughter of Philippe II, Duke of Orléans, and his wife, Henrietta Anne of England. As a young woman, she was known for her beauty and charm, but in 1717, she made the unexpected decision to enter the convent at Chelles. The transformation from worldly noblewoman to humble nun was a profound one, and this image reflects the inner peace and serenity that Louise Adelaide found in her new life. She is depicted in her religious habit, her expression calm and contemplative, her hands folded in prayer. The simple, austere background emphasizes her dedication to her new vocation. Louise Adelaide's decision to become an Abbess was not without controversy. Some saw it as a way for her to escape the political intrigues and scandals that surrounded the French court, while others viewed it as a noble act of self-sacrifice. Regardless of the motivations behind her decision, Louise Adelaide proved to be an exceptional leader, guiding the convent with wisdom and compassion. She was known for her generosity to the poor and her commitment to the education of young girls. This portrait, created around the time of her entry into the convent, captures a moment of transformation and renewal. It serves as a reminder of the unexpected twists and turns that life can take, and the inner strength and resilience that can carry us through even the most challenging of times.
