It\u2019s almost as though \u2014 nearly 230 years after her execution \u2014 we\u2019re meant to believe that Marie Antoinette was a victim of the French Revolution rather than a symbol of its grievances in the first place. So, why has Marie Antoinette\u2019s image been sanitized in recent years? Was she simply a misunderstood aristocrat \u2014 born in the wrong place at the wrong time? Or have we, perhaps, been buying into some counter-revolutionary revisionism?
