Rosalie Duthé
French courtesan / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Catherine-Rosalie Gerard Duthé (1748–1830),[lower-alpha 1] alternately Duthe or Du The, was a celebrated French courtesan. A companion of French kings and European nobility, she has been called "the first officially recorded dumb blonde."[2][3][4] Duthé was a frequently requested subject for portraits, including partial and full nudes, many of which still exist in museums and private collections.
