Description

Explore the captivating life of Marie-Antoinette (1755-1793), one of history's most compelling and controversial figures. This richly illustrated volume by the J. Paul Getty Museum offers an intimate examination of both the public grandeur and private world of the French queen whose extravagant lifestyle epitomised the excesses of eighteenth-century aristocracy. Discover how Marie-Antoinette's influential role as a fashion arbiter and patron of the arts shaped French court culture, whilst tracing the historical forces that led to the monarchy's eventual collapse. The contrast between her privileged position and tragic end on the scaffold continues to captivate historians, writers, and filmmakers more than two centuries later. This Getty Publications work provides essential context for understanding pre-revolutionary France and the symbolic power of this iconic queen.
