Details
This littleknown copy of MarieAntoinette of Austria is attributed to one of the Brachard brothers, either the eldest, JeanCharlesNicolas or the youngest, JeanNicolasAlexandre. This object is an idealized portrait of the queen instead of the evocation of a sovereign at the height of her power. The head is slightly turned to the right; the shoulders are covered with a swath of fabric for a natural effect; she is wearing a crown decorated with a fleurdelis and a row of pearls. As one of the most famous and controversial women in French History, MarieAntoinette was the object of many artistic representations. Many valuable pieces disappeared during the French Revolution. Fortunately, some copies have survived the upheavals of time. Key Ingredients: Vegetal Wax, Cotton
