Description

The Countess of Castiglione's story is one of obsession and control, set against the backdrop of the early days of photography. In 1837, she dedicated herself to becoming the most photographed woman in the world, modeling for hundreds of images that would be remembered for generations to come. This remarkable investigation into the consequences of beauty, fame, and vanity is a thought-provoking exploration of the human drive to shape and commodify one's image.
