Marie Antoinette and Her Children Cross Stitch Pattern - Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun
Step into the opulence of French history with the Marie Antoinette and Her Children cross-stitch pattern, based on Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun’s 1787 masterpiece. This iconic portrait was commissioned during a time of great political tension, just before the French Revolution, as Marie Antoinette faced increasing public criticism. In this artwork, she is depicted with her three children, an image designed to counter the negative portrayal of her as an extravagant and distant queen.
Vigée Le Brun’s soft, yet commanding brushstrokes capture the tenderness between the queen and her children, showcasing a more maternal, compassionate side of Marie Antoinette. This painting was intended to bolster her image as a loving mother and rightful queen in the eyes of the French people. As one of the foremost female portrait artists of the 18th century, Vigée Le Brun’s ability to elevate her subject with grace and dignity is captured beautifully in this piece.
