Marie-Antoinette: a look at the life of a queen

March 14, 2008

From her childhood in Austria to her life at Versailles, the life of France's most glamourous queen, Marie-Antoinette, is at the heart of an exhibit which opens Saturday at the Grand Palais in Paris and runs through the end of June. More than 300 works are gathered from all over Europe -- paintings, sculptures and other art objects that the queen either loved or commisioned.
