MARIE ANTOINETTE’S CHANGE IN TIME ⟩ A new series portrays the French queen as a feminist, receiving criticism from historians

A painting by Elisabeth-Louise Vigée Le Bruni depicts Marie Antoinette, the French queen, wearing a simple white muslin dress that partially peeked through. The fate of the 18th-century French queen, Marie Antoinette, was harsh; she was guillotined by revolutionaries on October 16, 1793, in the Concorde square of Paris. Her tragic story, alongside her zest for life, has remained a subject of fascination, and she is considered one of the most famous and popular figures of the “silver-haired” category, frequently appearing in books, documentaries, films, and series.
