the first portrait was when she was about 15 years old, shemust have looked very young and the painter retouched many details to enhance her beauty
Another fascinating video! Bravo 👏.
☝️
It is now thought to have originally been a portrait of one of her elder sisters that was then later retouched to turn it into Marie Antoinette. The pastel by Ducreux of 1769 is probably a more accurate likeness although it allegedly took him five attempts to capture any close resemblance.
She looked 13 at 15...
Pan.could u do richard the lionheart.i mentioned his mother just now.and i believe from what i read that he DID look like his mother.thanks.🙂
Its funny because I recognized her instantly without reading the title... I always found it hard to imagine what her face really looked like. Her portraits seems so... weird? That is until I visited Versailles and saw her buste at Petite Trianon. She had the Habsburg jaw, really big eyes and a high forehead. Later on she also had, what we’d now call a third chin! It was considered beautiful back then. Marie Antoinette was very Pretty.
What happened to her head and body. Give me a heads up OR heads off. LMAO
@10Lira LIRA YOUR SHORT A FEW LIRAS IN THE HEAD. DO ME A FAVOR AND TAKE A HIKE FOREVER AND THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES CUCUMBER
I always imagine her looking like a more Caucasian version of Imelda Marcos or maybe like those movie stars from 1930s to 1960s who look so ethereal.
Apparently the closest resemblance in either painted or sculpted media is the bust of 1783 by Félix Lecomte currently in the Queen’s bedchamber at Versailles.
@@piplebref4607 I actually have a miniature of that bust alongside Louis on my dressing table, so pretty!
I think she was more beautiful. A perfect example of scapegoat of a ppopulation by now reduced to hunger. I would like to see also the portrait of her very wise mother... Great work as always.
She is my favorite historical figure, alongside Mozart, whom she met when they were both 8 or 9. I love her beauty and how she was a very loving mother.
Same I love them both they are beautiful people❤❤❤
Mine as well! She has a certain elegance.
@@jasminep.9860 and they actually met when Mozart is around 6 years old not 8 and Marie is also 7 at that time not 9, its funny when Mozart in that age proposed to Marie when she helped him up
@@lilyagalonasakura5576 Adorable!
It’s odd that Mozart had a sister who also composed and Mozart himself adored her work. Apparently none of her music have survived (or they’ve might have been even credited to her brother) because of course
Great job! I really felt bad for her once I read her real story. Only her daughter survived. I really admired Marie Therese’s strength and resilience. Do Marie Therese when you get a chance.
Her daughter died as well tho
@@sakitheduck6184
Marie Therese survived the reign of terror. She died at age 72. She survived her parents and her siblings.
"I have seen all, I have heard all, and I have forgotten all"-- Marie Antoinette 😔
French people never liked her, they called her " The Áustria", in her trial all this hate appeared. They invented sordid things about her. She was defenseless. It reminds me to the Romanoff family.
L'Autrichienne
Initially the French people loved her as times were not so hard. It was only later, due to her ignoring so many in the court, that she was turned upon. Many of the common people loved her as she helped them in a number of ways - she even “adopted” a poor child, she taught her own children to be kind to others, and she gave money. It was the nobles who were petty and turned on her. A tragic life, nonetheless.
Because the Romanov's family let the peasants die for famine too?
@@artemisa1523 NO!
@@regenfrau7823 you are right
Your Marie Antoinette is incredibly beautiful like a modern face model, or model/actress. Very well done!
She looks like a cross between a very young Sharon Stone, Glenn Close and Meryl Streep combined. What do you think?
@@mariavictoriasalita2908 Sure, all very successful and in their own unique ways beautiful. She could also have been successful in their era, 1980's to present. Or, the Golden Age of Hollywood, or the era between the two. She's one of the few legendary historical ladies played by glamorous actresses in Hollywood movies who could actually have matched their beauty and glamour! She was known for such in her time.
Thank you !!!! You did a fantastic work with this. I always wanted to see how she look in real life. She was a real beauty. Marie Antoinette is my favourite historical person . I have read a lot of books about her from people who really knew her and many of them saying that she was kind and was very miss understood.
Love your work Panagiotis!
BUT there is seldom enough time given to read your narratives. I would really appreciate to being given more time on the printed pages.
Thanks for your excellent work.

Too quick to read, very true.

My daughter has a friend whose family has been traced back to Marie. This young lady looks just the portraits that have been painted of her. Her forehead is high and she has the big, buggy eyes. When I met her, I told her she must be a descendant and I was right. So amazing. They are lucky they can go back that far. She’s a sweet, sweet young woman.
I feel sorry for her. She got blamed for things she didn't do.
Yes like saying let them
Eat cake She actually never said it and her husband was a procrastinator and ignorer of issues it was actually his lack of doing that caused most of the issue
@@andreapyeatt2673 OK that she didn't say but despite that she had a wasteful lifestyle which was a cause for the starvation of the French common people. I don't approve her execution but I know also that people who are starving can do very terrible actions.
@@patrickdevries6267 I feel more sorry for the palace guards and their commander who were mobbed, beheaded and disfigured by skewering their heads on sticks and paraded on the streets. They were just doing their job. When severe hunger and hardships really strike, humans become beasts and never sees anything humane and reasonable. It's just like what's happening today, and it may get worse as time goes by. Tragic.
@@andreapyeatt2673 but what about that infamous diamond necklace?
@@mariavictoriasalita2908 she had nothing to do with it. Her name was just used for it
What was horribly tragic and cruel was what happened to the children.
Only her daughter survived. her son died in prison at 11 , from neglect, he also went insane due to all the horrible abuse by the guards . It's so sad , his sister would here him scramming, and crying for there mother .
Similar to the Bolsheviks Revolution in Russia. They didn't have to torture or kill the kids for the sins of their parents...
@@jamellfoster6029 Sadly, death of the children was necessary, if they couldn't be indoctrinated into Communists. The Czech army was approaching to take them away, their descendants posed a threat to Bolshevik rule, they couldn't be moved.
I'm not justifying it, I'm simply saying that that's what would've inevitably happened, regardless of how you spin it. They weren't killed out of spite, but out of necessity.
@@triplehmafia6556 when in reality it was more neccessary to kill the bolsheviks.
"Oh how different things would have been if there had been 4-5 neighbors armed with shotguns hidden at the foot of the stairs instead of sitting there helpless waiting for the footsteps"-Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn(from 'The Gulag Achipelago')
@@plantfeeder6677 Certainly, I'm sure that oblast only had the Romanovs killed out of fear of what would happen to them if they failed to carry out the task, or if the Romanov's were secured by the White Army.
I love these videos! So fascinating. Sometimes the computer version looks like the painting, you can see the similarities and other times it doesn't like right. I wonder if we could see this done to a current famous person, to see how accurate it is. Like the current queen Elizabeth etc
Good idea!
This is a really nice video. You make the old, flat paintings come to life so that the subjects look like people you would see in public today! My only recommendation is to have the words stay on the screen longer so viewers can read them. Thank you!
The only critique I have is that often she is portrayed in this video with quite dark hair, even though we know her hair to have been an ash blonde color when it wasn't powdered. Other than that lovely video!
the one with dark hair was taken from the miniature, which looked to be powdered dark hair. its possible that they had put a dark colored powder (as coloring was common). the artist just copies what the images are and brings them to life.
I see a resemblance to Tippi Hedren as she looked in Marnie and The Birds Hitchcock films.
Yes !! I never thought about that. Very accurate 👌
Absolutely true! All the time I had the feeling that this face looked familiar 👍👍👍
I agree
She was just fullfilling her role as the queen and never once said 'let them eat cake' such BS. It was a tragedy as to how her life was ended and just after she tripped over the leg of her executioner before going to the guillotine she said, 'I'm sorry monsieur'.
It's an iconic myth expressing how out of touch she was with the reality of normal life. Live like that, born into it, married into it, it's hard for the very wealthy to know what reality is like for people who ARE NOT like them.
It still is.
Didn't she say "I beg your pardon"?
@@andrewthornhill7042 You're 100% correct but is was more 'pardonnez moi monsieur', my bad.
Lm
She had manners and was polite as befitted her station.
Till the end, she never lost her dignity.
She had cancer in the end,
and was bleeding profusely throughout her trial. She went from a fresh, gorgeous-looking young woman, to a drained, woman battered snd shrivelled by panic, fear, worry, sorrow, hopelesness.
Although she was only 36 when she was killed, she looked seventy.
Fascinating. It is like coming face to face with her.
Tragic figure. I would love to know how accurate the portraits were.
Me too because i don't think the AI are very accurate.
I think the artists made sure the portraits would be flattering (of course!)..who wants to tick off a royal? That wd include slightly enlarging the eyes, as they are the focus of the face. Seeing numerous portraits of European royals, I also suspect a small mouth was the beauty standard for women/ maybe even men? I bet the depictions were also very much influenced by the beauty standards of the day.
Not very accurate I believe. For centuries the paintings were made to flatter the model. It was not expected to be realistic. The artist also made adjustments to follow the current beauty ideals. So the model should recognise him/herself on the painting but it would be idealised version.
It was well known that the paintings flattered them.
You can. madame tussaud met her and her family. There’s some wax figures of them modeled after madame tussaud’s.
I appreciate this video so much. I've always admired Marie Antoinette.
By the way, as others have mentioned, her hair was strawberry blonde. It's a misconception that she had blonde or ash-colored hair.
The powdered hair, possibly.
Vive la France 😊💓💓💓💓💓pauvre Marie Antoinette 😔
Oui elle n'a pas mérité ce sort si atroce...
Stunning! It’s wonderful to see these portraits come to life. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Please leave the print on the screen a bit longer.
She would have loved to have had seen this technology in her time for she loved new and fascinating ways to entertain her guests at her parties. This was a thoughtful and creative video dedicated to her.
She looks even more regal and wise than the paintings.
She looks like Queen Margareth of Denmark and Meryl Streep. Very gorgeous job.
Nice video, but Marie Antoinette wasn’t the last Queen of France. Marie Amélie, consort of Louis-Philippe, was the last Queen of France. And Eugénie was the last Empress.
Marie Amélie was Queen of the French, not Queen of France. The last holder of the title Queen of France was in fact Marie Antoinette’s daughter who held it for about 20 minutes following the abdication of Charles X.
@@piplebref4607 Well, what i meant is that Marie wasn't the last Queen, not the triviality of the title itself, but if that is the case, then you are correct pointing out Marie-Thérèse as last reine de France.
Yay! I don't think I've ever been this excited for a video!
If you are black, you have to know that Marie antoinette was very generous with colored people, which was exceptional at that time.
Marie-Antoinette has received and raised a black boy (a Senegalese). She gave him a refined education in Versailles, near Paris. She called him "Jean Amilcar", because she wanted him to be considered as a French, despite his skin color.
Even after she had to leave Versailles, she had continued to pay the education of this senegalese boy. And she paid it with her own money. And when Marie-Antoinette understood that she will be executed (assassinated) by these proto-communists ("jacobins"), she asked a friend of her to make sure that the education of this black child continues to be paid to him and that he continues to be protected, even after she died.
I am French. You have to remember that, at that time, almost all of Europeans were racists.
Queen of France Marie-Antoinette was literaly an exception. She wanted to be generous, even with the simple farmers, even with the commoners, and even with black people.
Another anecdote : despite the segregation and against the will of all aristocrats, Marie-Antoinette has protected a mulato, Who was called "Chevalier de Saint George". Marie-Antoinette made him her music director. And after that, she appointed him to head of l'Opéra Royal, in Paris.
Really, Marie-Antoinette was very generous with all people, she felt closer to the French People than to the parasitic aristocracy of her time.
She was against racism, which is common nowadays but was exceptional at that time. Really, She was a great Queen for France and for Humanity.
@@philippehenriot8245 Wow, I didn't know about some of this! Thank you.
The French preferred her sister, Maria Karolina, but I think Marie Antoinette was prettier. She had a spirit to her, a kind of freshness that the court of Versailles desperately needed since it was rigid, old, and musty ever since Louis XIV set the rules for it so staunchly. Many reports from ambassadors stated that she was delightful to talk to and was down-to-Earth.
This is the best one you've done. I'm so impressed with your skill! Thank You, Thank You.
She looked so beautiful and kind
Es la Reina más bella y elegante,mí adoración eterna a María Antonieta.💝🥀💐
Poor woman, not only did she have to listen to her four year old son's torturous screams, she died a horrific death.RIP.
please make one for the writers Lord Byron, Mary Shelley, Percy Shelley, John Keats, Jane Austen and Bronte Sisters
Bravo Panagioti mou! I love history... and seeing faces come alive like this is delightful. Na ise kala.
Poor woman, she had such a tragic life. She’s such a widely misunderstood historical figure too. The famous line about “let them eat cake” is not true but not only that, she was also a very charitable person. She did a lot of good things but she was never liked by the French people from day 1. As they say, the winners write history.
She might be get falsely blamed. But her waste of money lifestyle and her naive standpoint on politics cause her and her husband death.
She is the member of the aristocracy who is occupied the whole nationals weath, throwing money on expensive stuff eventually caused the Deficit, she is not the direct politic leader, but she belongs to the part the bad politics for many ordinary people, therefore, when masses had enough of the aristocracy exploitative ruling, rebel and anti aristocracy revolution is inevitable. Dirty politic is unavoidable as well.
She was extremely beautiful
Yes she was. Beautiful in multiple ways
Beautiful work
Thank you much appreciated!
@@panagiotisconstantinou I love the harpsichord music. She looks very beautiful sporting a very simple hairdo and barely any make-up or none at all. I can't pinpoint which actress/es she looked like.
As someone who lives in Austria and is used to local facial characteristics of women - I confirm that this recreation is very very accurate
Well, but the Habsburgs as an ages old dynasty were not really indigenous Austrians but pan-European in every sense of the word. And very inbred as well :9
This videocast superbly brings the past to the present as we see another historical figure coming alive from an oil paiting. Moreover, we understand more clearly why this happened. Marie Antoinette had not formed a bond with the people of France. She disdained them, and didn't realize that to be Queen of France, the people need to see compassion from her.
Thats no reason to killed her as they did
Not true. She was nothing like she has been depicted as. This was attested to by her personal servants who all adored her and looked up to her. She did much to help the French peasants and even adopted a French orphan whose grandparents couldn't afford to keep him and all his siblings after their parents died. Marie took him in as her own child and paid for his education and let him live in luxury at court. She also took responsibility for educating her own children, whom she made invite French peasant children to play and take meals with them, so they would learn about others less fortunate than themselves and to treat everyone as equals. This is how her own mother brought her and her siblings up, and every Xmas and birthday among the hundreds of gifts they received they were only allowed to keep one and had to give the ret away to poor local children. They also were made to invite poor children to play and share meals with them. Marie was so kind and charitable to the poor while at that the French court that the king, her father in law chided her.........
Omg this was all Revolutionaire propaganda !!! Fake news ??? You understand ? Like the same what the news do today ! Pouaaah in France they finally have see that she was MURDERD and that NO ONE had to die because they are aristocrate ! Did you read or see document aboit la Revolution currently ? I mean the new one not the document from 50 yrs ago 🤦🏼♀️
The only thing I would like to have seen done differently would have been a more historically accurate hair color. Marie Antoinette was a natural redhead who was referred to as "Little Austrian Carrots" when she was first brought to the French court. Otherwise, I really love your channel. It's fascinating to see a human face rather than the portraiture we are used to.
She was blonde 👱♂️
I noticed that too! Otherwise a great video.
@@enlilw-l2 She was strawberry blonde.
Her hairlocket indicates that she was strawberry blonde
@@jasminep.9860 Strawberry blonde is not a natural color, she was ash blonde exactly.
Your work is tremendous. Thanks for all you do.
Extremely interesting to see these faces !
She had a very protruding Habsburg jaw. Her skull was therefore easily identified. During the revolution, all the tombs of the kings in the Basilica of Saint-Denis were destroyed and the bones of the kings were thrown out of their coffins. See how this jaw looks in the Habsburg dynasty. All her portraits are heavily retouched. I am a professional French translator, I am passionate about French history, and I read a lot of books about French history.
Beautiful video thank you for sharing , I am pretty sure that Marie Antoinette would have loved it .👍❤
Her beauty is amazing. I think she got a lot prettier when she got depicted with a relatively simple hairdo. I just don't understand those lofty powdered wigs with those silly decorations and trinklets.
It was just fashion. Fashion can be really weird sometimes.
They weren’t just wigs. Because they believed bathing in hot water opened pores, they did not wash their hair often. So to pomade and powder their hair helped to keep it clean and so they could hold the styles. Wigs harbored mites and lice, ew!
if you don't understand the powdered wigs and all the extravagances then youve never been young !!! think of punk in the 80's or flower power in the 60's ....we all tried to be different and get attention in our youth !!! same goes for a frustrated young queen piling up hair and feathers on her head :-)

Great job on the faces. I am pretty sure that she had a more ashy blonde colored hair though.
Also could you please give more time to read the text. Some are timed better but most are done so quickly.
I just quickly pause when I see text and then read as I want to!
@@swinebar On certain devices, yes that works. Difficult to pause on others, such as a TV, because the "pause" graphics cover most of the screen and the image is darkened, as well.
How blonde was Marie Antoinette's hair? I was only thinking of yellow or golden blonde like Agneetha from ABBA or white blonde like Marilyn Monroe. I also don't have an idea what's the closest shade of ash blonde.
Great video and with the right music !
Excellent as always
Great work she was very pretty mucho more than all the drawings and paintings about her , amazing work , i do thank You , congratulations
Even though Marie Antoinette was Austrian by birth, at 1:20 she looks like a really classy French lady.
Actually that's because she was only half Austrian. Her father was French. He was born Duke of Lorraine (which was an independent duchy in France, not officially French at this time, but already culturally French).
Queen Marie-Antoinette of France, had class to the very end.
As she walked to the guillotine, she accidentally stepped on the executioner's foot, and she exclaimed politely -
"Pardon me, Sir, I did not mean for it to happen".
To what he replied : sorry but I do really mean the following to happen !

@@philippehenriot8245 thanks for that review. I'm of African descent. I too have respect for Marie because of her attitude towards blacks and people of color. But let us look at the bigger picture, therefore my added review here, is in order.The Jacobin's ideology of the rights of man like America's, was largely drawn from the enlightenment movement, this led to the Jacobins being anti-slavery despite their state terror infamy...and how ironic it is that... enlightenment America perpetuated (the) slavery that revolutionary France via the Jacobin party eschewed. This fact is not widely known by amateur historians. I too am angry at the Jacobins for executing the beautiful Marie-antoinette, But the zeitgeist (spirit of the times) of that era was changing, which led ultimately to the displacement of the ancien régime (Old régime) a régime to which Marie-antoinette belongs. The ancien régime was a monarchial system that was pro-slavery ...despite Marie's kindness to blacks. So then.. thanks should also be given for the successes of the french (and American revolution) for the destruction of those old monarchial (and hence slavery) systems. Without that destruction bills of rights probably would never have been written. I should also Note that the ideological underpinnings of enlightenment rationalism that ignited the french and American revolution... ultimately led to the abolishment of slavery. The american constitution, I must also add, have embedded within it enlightenment ideals that greatly helped the abolitionists cause, and for that we give thanks.
@@patrickjohnson1808 Sorry for my english, actually I used a translator for my first message, nevertheless I think that you will understand the main part of my message. The French Revolution is a very complex phenomenon, I was refering to the most radical and criminal men of this revolution. I didn't refer to the "Philosophes des Lumières", which was also a complex period. For instance, nobody in history was more racist than Voltaire. And je his still considered as the main ideological source of the Revolution.
When I spoke by using the expression "proto-communist", I had on my mind the Terror, not the Declaration des droits de l'Homme.
And I didn't defend monarchy, even if monarchy was not more for slavery than America, where a lot of black people had to work in plantations.
In my first message, the only thing that I wanted to defend was the kindness of Marie-Antoinette. And her generosity. As I wrote, at that time, almost all Europeans (but also colored people) were racist. It's precisely the fact that I wanted to underline : the generosity of Marie-Antoinette with black people (and commoners) was exceptional.
@@philippehenriot8245 great. I enjoyed your comments. I'm in total agreement agreement with you on all points. I indeed admire Marie for those things. Thanks for pointing out her generosity to me specifically.
@@patrickjohnson1808 I sent the same message to two other black people on comments, and to people in general, I wrote a less specific message, but also concerning her aristocratic attitude, and the slanderous pamphlets that were written against her, among others by the british secret services (Paraph men).
Terrific....thanks for that ...🍷🥐🍖🧀👑
As well as an Austrian wife Louis XVI had a German mother, Marie-Josèphe of Saxony.
He was a very tall man for the 18th century at 1.93 m or 6 feet 4 inches...
Although he was a bit shorter after his date with Madame Guillotine.

OMG!
And Axel von Fersen ,can see why they 2 fell so deeply in love ,he was mentipned as possible father of her son. And helped them on their escape that night but it failed to reach Austrian border .
Out of all the Queen's down through history I think she was the most prettiest one of all even though Mary queen of Scots is my favourite because I can trace our boy in 1 all the way back to her but still in our reality Marie Antoinette was a very beautiful woman and thank you so very much for portraying and her in that light Look forward to seeing more from you
Interesting and worthwhile video.
In all of her portraits she clearly has silver / grey hair, yet in your modern re-interpretations you change her hair color to dark.
Also, she was a blond without the wigs and powdering.
Can You do Mary Queen of Scots?
Amazing Video!
Nice but in almost all her pictures here she is portrayed as a brunette, when I had always heard she was a blonde.
Yes, it's strange. Is her hair as blonde as Marilyn Monroe's or Lady Gaga's?
Pleasе show the Medici bankers especially Lorenzo the Magnificent
Great Work, thank you very much !
Another great video, & she was very lovely! However, can you please do Napoleon Bonaparte soon?
Wow she was indeed beautiful.
🇧🇷 Magnífico trabalho. Parabéns 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
How could they cut off someone's head who has such a great smile and an amazing sweet tooth for cake?
Fantastic! I love these coz they're still true to the portrait even though enlivened using modern science. It's the way that truth to portrait maintains its integrity which makes them so believable.

I'd like to see you do Khufu (Cheops), though there is only one very tiny figurine to go by. Also, the Sphinx guy. Whoever that is.
Khufu was the builder of Pyramid of Giza
Only if they had Oprah at the time... Oprah would have invited her for an interview for the nation and taken care of everything. Oprah always takes care of things ! Oprah is the BEST ! We LOVE Oprah !
That smirk. Oh my goodness,the poor women, married at 14 and then beheaded. Yikes.
Thanks the information was more clear with white background..heartily thanks
No. The contrast is better with black.
@@bartobruintjes7056 okay, but some of us has eye sight problems..if u think it's okay then okay
Please do one of mary queen of scots too, please 🙏
The history always talks about how her beauty … I don’t saw her Beauty in this video
She wasn’t the last queen of France.
I am saying this in the description. Thank you for the observation
No she was the last Queen of France... the other Quen's after her are " Queen of the French " ( Reines des Français ) is not the same
@@SM-vy1gr no Louis XVIII and Charles X used the title or style King of France. Louis XVI fif briefly use the title King of the French before he was overthrown but it was Louis-Phillippe was is more known for using it
Great job as always
amazing video! The only mistake ( which is quite common ) is that the first potrait is actually her sister Maria Josepha ! it's to tell because of their similarities as sisters ....
This reminds me what a devastating blow to civilisation the French revolution was. Inspired and orchestrated by English Freemasonry.
The French Royal Family wound up living in England in exile supported by a pension from George III.
Louis XVIII would be restored to his brother's throne by Wellington's army who escorted him into Paris...a move which was probably a bit insensitive.
She was used as a scapegoat in history and how she described as young and older situations and complications during her life wasn't easy in royal back then, but now royal family can fall in love with person he or she love this century that history teach a harsh lesson
The script disappears too fast, no time to read it, extend time on screen please!
Amazing and ghostling, feels like she is alive! I couldn't avoid thinking how would Count von Fersen react to these photos renderization...
I like how they didn't mess around with failed leaders back then. They held then accountable for their failures and then executed them. How effective.
