EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic female head-gear of Marie Antoinette, Queen of France in 1783. The elaborate hairstyle adorned with feathers is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the French monarchy during the 18th century. This engraving, featured in The Magazine of Art by Cassell & Company in London in 1886, offers a glimpse into the fashion and style that defined this influential era. Marie Antoinette (1755-1793), known for her extravagant taste and trend-setting choices, is depicted here with utmost elegance. Her profile captures her regal beauty as she gazes off into the distance. The ostrich feathers delicately placed within her hair add an ethereal touch to her already majestic appearance. As one of history's most famous queens, Marie Antoinette symbolizes both power and controversy. Her reign was marked by political unrest and ultimately ended tragically during the French Revolution. However, through this portrait, we are reminded of her undeniable influence on fashion trends that continue to inspire even today. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this image while emphasizing its historical significance. It serves as a reminder not only of Marie Antoinette's individuality but also represents an entire era characterized by lavishness and excess. This remarkable print from Heritage Images allows us to appreciate the artistry behind Marie Antoinette's head-gear while offering insight into a fascinating period in history when royalty reigned supreme.
