The duke portrays the duchess as an enchanting yet flawed character, highlighting her vivaciousness and charm, which he finds both captivating and irritating. He suggests that her kindness and appreciation for beauty were too abundant, indicating that she was too easily pleased and not discerning enough for his tastes. This duality in his description reveals his possessiveness and a sense of superiority, as he seems more concerned with her obedience and status than her genuine qualities. Overall, the duke's characterization paints her as a victim of his controlling nature.

What is the poem the last duchess about?

'My Last Duchess' is an example of a dramatic monologue. The speaker, supposedly Alfonso, the Duke of Farara, is describing his late Duchess and is grumbling and complaining about her shortcomings. It is inadvertently revealed through his own speech that the Duke himself, directly or the other way round, had caused the death of the Duchess. It is ironic and surprising to know that the qualities that caused the demise of the Duchess were her natural and universal qualities of love, joy, courtesy towards her well-wishers and compassion. The Duke's complaint of the Duchess flirting with everyone, actually refers to her quality of casual courtesy and response to her well wishers (which was misinterpreted by the Duke). "She smiled somehow, I know not how". The way she smiled at everything and everybody shows her quality of enjoying and being joyful in every thing that comes by her. The way she failed to give exclusive importance to the Duke's "gift of nine-hundred-year-old" legacy, however, is what infuriated him and made him resort to such heinous deed. We are none-the-less made aware that the Duke's decision was no where near being acceptable.
