Marie Antoinette
Historic Fantasy
Maria Antonia Josepha Johanna (a.k.a. Maria Antoinette)
Marie Antoinette was the last Queen of France before the French Revolution. Born an Archduchess of Austria, she became Dauphine of France upon her marriage to Louis-Auguste, heir to the French throne, and later became Queen when he ascended as Louis XVI. Her lavish lifestyle and political influence were often criticized, and she became a symbol of the excesses of the monarchy. During the Revolution, she became increasingly unpopular, which culminated in her trial and execution by guillotine. Despite historical controversies, she remains a significant cultural icon, symbolizing the extravagance of the pre-revolutionary monarchy.
