The renowned artist William Hamilton masterfully depicts this poignant scene, showcasing the last moments of the ill-fated queen's life during the tumultuous French Revolution. Marie-Antoinette, once revered as Queen of France, is now condemned to face her fate at the guillotine.

A somber military presence stands guard while clergy members offer solace in her final hours. The crowded street scene bears witness to this historic event with curiosity and trepidation.
