Léa de Lonval is an aging courtesan, a once famous beauty facing the end of her career. She is also facing the end of her most intense love affair, with Fred Peloux -known as Chéri - a flamboyant playboy half her age.

In 1795, cocky, witty, handsome, Limerick-born lawyer Tom Lefroy is sent by his grim uncle and benefactor, snobbish Judge Langlois, to relatives' Hampshire country estate. His sharp mind and attitude initially clash with local Reverend Austen's rebellious daughter Jane. But soon they prefer each-other to the expected better-off fiancés, and must wrestle their families and society at large or sacrifice their budding love. The film was based upon the novel "Becoming Jane Austen" by Jon Hunter Spence.

She must somehow secretly pose for the crucial painting without the knowledge of Vermeer's wife, avoid Van Ruijven's grasp, and protect herself from the cruel gossip of the world of a 17th century servant. The film is based upon the novel with the same name by Tracy Chevalier.

The duke only cares for her as future mother of a male heir, and punishes her failing in that respect severely.
