Copy of Marie Antoinette's will at the Imperial Museum of Brazil
History
It isn't really a will to "contest", as Marie Antoinette did not leave anything to Madame Elisabeth except the care of her children, if possible. It is more on the "testament" side of "last will and testament"; indeed the French name is simply "Testament de la Reine." Apart from being the last letter of a very very famous woman, personally I think it is a very affecting letter, Antoinette thinking far more of Elisabeth's comfort (consoling her over the testimony of sexual abuse the young dauphin/Louis XVII gave, which was read at his mother's trial) and what her children will face than of her own ordeal. She was ready to face her end and did so with dignity and courage, following her husband's example.
Imagine copying out a number of those in an imitation of the Queen's handwriting, as the cover says? We are so used to photocopiers and scanners ... this is what you had to do if you wanted something like that before photoengraving was possible. I think it shows the level of interest in the Bourbons and Marie Antoinette herself, a quarter-century after the Revolution and Reign of Terror, and of course during the Restoration.
