Marie Antoinette at the Guillotine


For Bastille Day with apologies to Marie. (Real name: Maria Antonia Josepha Johanna (Habsburg-Lothringen) d'Autriche.) I'm a distant cousin of Marie. But think more Les Misérables than royalty for most of my family tree.
 
By the way, although often attributed to her, apparently Marie Antoinette never actually said, "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche." But that doesn't mean she wasn't a selfish clueless extravagant aristocrat.
