Conrad Heinrich Küchler's 1793 bronze medal, "Queen Marie-Antoinette Led to the Guillotine", depicts the French queen's final journey to the guillotine on October 16, 1793. The inscription, "Altera venit victima," meaning "Another victim comes," reflects the public's reaction to the queen's execution during the French Revolution. Küchler's medal is a powerful testament to the historical significance of this event, capturing the drama and tragedy of Marie Antoinette's last moments.
