A visit to the Chateau de Versailles led Courteille to imagine an entire collection in pale blue, the colour of Marie-Antoinette’s chambers at the Trianon, which Marie-Antoinette had designed herself. Courteille depicts Marie-Antoinette both at court and at the Hameau de la Reine with her animals. Throughout the collection, she explores the tragedy of Marie-Antoinette’s life, how it changed from luxurious garments, ostrich feathers, balls and parties to imprisonment in the Temple Prison and the Conciergerie. She was beheaded at the height of the Terror.
