Proust’s Muse, The Countess Greffulhe

In the video below, Valerie Steele discusses the legendary wardrobe of Élisabeth de Caraman-Chimay, the Countess Greffulhe (1860–1952), with Tanya Rivero of the Wall Street Journal‘s Lunch Break.

 

And don’t miss Laura Jacob’s review, of Proust’s Muse in which she explains how “Steele brings both ardor and restraint to Proust’s Muse, as well as a subtle sense of the reverberations between life and art, the mirror and the camera.”

Proust’s Muse, The Countess Greffulhe is on view through January 7, 2017 at The Museum at FIT.
