Marie-Antoinette and Louis XVI mug

Portraits of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI after their beheading are part of Sharon Kivland’s project La terreur n'est autre chose que la justice prompte, sévère, inflexible [Terror is nothing other than justice, prompt, severe, inflexible]. The name of the work is a quote from Maximilien Robespierre: looking at the clothes of parties that supported or rejected terror during the French Revolution, Kivland explores the ways in which political views are expressed in uniforms.
