Marie Antoinette, Queen, consort of Louis XVI, King of France, 1755-1793
Monarchs
Queens--Europe
Description
A postcard depicting the Temple of Love in the Queen's Hamlet at the Palace of Versailles, which was constructed in 1783 to allow Queen Marie Antoinette escape from court life. This postcard is part of a collection of postcards kept by Lucile Campbell, a schoolteacher in Sanford, Florida, for 30 years. In 1931, she took advantage of a special rate for teachers and sailed to Europe, where she traveled for several months and is thought to have acquired many of these postcards. During the 1940-1941 school year, Campbell taught at Sanford Grammar School. Before her retirement in 1970, she taught at many other area schools, including the Oviedo School, Westside Grammar School, and Pinecrest Elementary School. Campbell used these postcards as aids in her classrooms to teach advanced subjects, such as Shakespearean drama. The collection, along with her other teaching aids, papers, and photographs, was later found at Sanford Grammar School after it became the University of Central Florida's Public History Center. Campbell's postcard collection and photographs provide insight into the life of a respected Florida educator.

A postcard depicting the Palace of the Petit Trianon, part of a gift from King Louis XVI of France to his wife, Queen Marie Antoinette, in 1774.
