Must I say that she was buried in the same cemetery as the victims of a stampede that happened the day of her marriage? Oh, but it must have been a Revolutionary plot. I can clearly see the Comité (from the teen Couthon to a not yet 3 years old Saint-Just) organising that. RIGHT.

(to be true, even the official guide to the site isn't particularly sure about the identity of the body they attributed to Capet... so ;) )

It's not really a XVIII century thing- it's more like empress Elizabeth, but definitely not like a Fragonard beauty.

The article was truly dreadful! Illogical, I'd say. And the bit about the Augsburg lip- man, that's the first time I saw anybody say it's cute XD
