A Day with Marie Antoinette

Featuring personal correspondence, lavish illustrations, and a wealth of unpublished material, this handsome slipcased volume reveals an intimate portrait of Marie Antoinette, her personal collections, and Versailles. ï»¿Marie Antoinette was a mirror of her time. Never has a queen been so passionately admired and adulated, then hunted, vilified, and defamed. Spanning her tragically brief yet passionate lifeâ€”from the young queen playing a shepherdess on stage, unaware of the turmoil in the capital, to Franceâ€™s guillotined â€œmartyr queen"â€”the author demystifies the legend, unveiling the woman behind the queen, and the wife and mother behind the sovereign. Â
Readers will experience the palatial luxury of the queenâ€™s Versailles by tracing Marie Antoinetteâ€™s footsteps through the royal residence, as well as discovering her voice through rare letters and encountering little-known works in her private art collection.
