Even by modern merits, she is so beautiful <3

Does anyone know anything of the life of Madame de Pompadour’s daughter Alexandrine Jeanne d’Étiolles? I know that sadly she tied very young, but I wanted to know how she took to the court life, how Louis XV took to her, and the other courtiers, and did she ever know her Father? Is there a book, or website that talks about those things? I apologize for all the questions. But I’ve had a hard time finding anything.

I’m afraid I don’t know anything about her.
