Political cartoon, grotesque satire, 18th century etching style. Marie Antoinette, dressed in an extravagant pre-Revolution gown, stands proudly next to the guillotine. In her hands, she holds her own severed head, which is looking at the viewer with a haughty, indifferent expression. The head speaks a bubble with the phrase "Let them eat cake?". The crowd of sans-culottes looks on in a mix of shock and grim satisfaction. Detailed ink work, cross-hatching, muted colors.
