Under her patronage: Boucher, Réveillon and Drouais

8 February 1756
Named lady-in-waiting to the Queen

The Seven Years' War: the public blames the marquise
The war goes badly for France, and public opinion blames the marquise rather than the rotten social order; France emerges from the war diminished and virtually bankrupt.
1757
After Rossbach: “After us, the Deluge”
After France's defeat by the Prussians at Rossbach, Madame de Pompadour is alleged to have comforted the King with the now famous “after us, the Deluge”.
1759
Buys the porcelain factory at Sèvres
In 1759 the marquise buys outright the porcelain factory at Sèvres, which she had earlier built; it becomes one of the most famous porcelain manufacturers in Europe and provides skilled jobs for the region.
