EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 17th-century image, we encounter Barbara Urslerin (1629-1668+), an extraordinary woman hailing from Augsburg, Germany, who was born with a rare condition known as hypertrichosis, which caused her to grow an extensive amount of hair on her face and body. This intriguing portrait, taken around 1668, offers a glimpse into the life of this bearded lady, who defied societal norms and captivated the curiosity of her contemporaries. Barbara is depicted in the image with a poised and regal demeanor, seated at a harpsichord, her hands delicately positioned above the keys. Her bearded face is framed by a bald head, and her long, curly hair cascades down her back, adding to her striking appearance. The harpsichord, a popular musical instrument during the Baroque period, underscores her status as a musician, further emphasizing her talents and intellect. Despite the challenges she faced due to her unique physical appearance, Barbara Urslerin was known to have a strong spirit and a remarkable ability to entertain audiences with her music. Her presence in this portrait serves as a reminder of the complexities and intrigues of human nature, as well as the fascination that surrounds those who defy societal expectations. Barbara Urslerin's story is a testament to the enduring allure of the unusual and the extraordinary, and this image offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, inviting us to ponder the lives of those who dared to be different.
