Though she lives in the lap of luxury, Elisabeth is a woman trapped, her free spirit suffocated by the dictates of court and her subservient position at it. Meant not to govern the kingdom or even to voice opinions but, rather, to “represent” the monarchy as a lovely figurehead, she’s at once the subject of celebratory songs and admiring glances and an individual who’s oppressed and marginalized at every turn.
Be it having to endure a painter remarking upon her “complexion,” or quietly seething at the attention paid to an 18-year-old bride —who’s already on her second marriage, and who later refers to the empress-in-disguise as an “experienced woman”—Elisabeth recognizes, and resents, that her value is directly related to her youthful beauty and vitality.
