  • Resumen

  • This explores the mysterious story of "L'Inconnue de la Seine," presented as a podcast episode narrated by the fictional Lucien Graves. It examines how the death mask of an unidentified young woman pulled from the Seine River in the 1880s became a cultural phenomenon. The narrative traces her transformation from anonymous drowning victim to artistic muse who inspired countless writers and artists, and her surprising second life as the face of CPR mannequins ("Resusci Anne"). Throughout, Graves contemplates the enigmatic smile of this unknown woman and how her serene death mask continues to captivate our imagination, becoming what many call "the most kissed face in history."
