Exhibited at the Musée d’Orsay, this work is a complex portrait of Madame Jeantaud. She is seen in profile, looking towards her own reflection in a mirror. The viewer thus sees both her profile and her face from the front, but darkened and less distinct in the reflection. Degas plays with the notions of identity, perception, and reality. The composition is elegant, with dark tones and a touch of color on the hat and furniture. It is a psychological portrait that explores the model’s interiority through the device of the mirror.
