Also look online for portraits by Elisabeth Vigee-Lebrun, who painted portraits of Marie Antoinette and others before and after the Revolution. The stiff dresses with hoops are from before, the loose white dresses worn with straw hats are from before, the straighter white and colored dresses with bizarre hats and hair are from after.

Check your library. Look online for costume departments at universities. Look at art collections online.

Good luck!
The French Revolution was 1789. Napoleon crowned himself emperor in 1804. Louis XVI and Marie antoinette ruled 1774-1793. this should help you look for the time periods.

Question: French Revolution/thomas paine’s rights of a man?

how did the american declaration of Independence and thomas paine’s rights of a man contribute to the political atmosphere resulting in the french revolution?

Answer: The American revolution gave the French hope that commoners could over throw a corrupt, unfair monarchy and gave them a great example to follow. The American Declaration of independence would be a good guideline for the 3rd estate and the bourgeoisie to follow because it stated many of the things the French were wanting to earn by this revolution such a: The governments rule only with the consent of the governed and that they should protect the unalienable rights of their citizens and also that people have a right to throw off governments that are unjust and that do not protect their citizens which was the case in FRance because of the unfair estate system where the two minority, top estates got all the benefits at the third estates suffering. Thomas Paine's common sense too showed the French that they could overthrow their monarch (Louis XVI) because of them ignoring their natural rights.

Answer: French Revolution was 1789 and began with the attack on the Bastille, a French prison, by the common people. It was inspired by the American Revolution and believed in the principles of brotherhood, equality, and freedom. Sorry, that's all I remember from my high school history class! I believe the Spanish Armada was 1588.
