## Image Caption
Portrait of [Marie Antoinette](https://www.worldhistory.org/Marie_Antoinette/), painted by [Alexander](https://www.worldhistory.org/disambiguation/Alexander/) Kucharsky in 1791 or 1792, while she was a virtual prisoner in the Tuileries [Palace](https://www.worldhistory.org/disambiguation/palace/). Only 36 or 37, Marie Antoinette's hair had been turned white prematurely after the failed [Flight to Varennes](https://www.worldhistory.org/Flight_to_Varennes/). A blow from the pike of a revolutionary is visible on the bottom left-hand corner of the work.
Museum of the History of France, Versailles.
