About the piece
Painted in 1885 by Georges Cain, this evocative work captures the somber morning of October 16, 1793. The composition centers on Marie Antoinette, whose luminous white gown provides a stark, symbolic contrast against the dark, heavy stone architecture of the prison courtyard and the deep-toned uniforms of the revolutionary guards.
