This print by Lambertus Antonius Claessens, created after 1794, depicts Élisabeth Philippine Marie Hélène de France, a French princess. The print features a profile portrait of the princess, set within an oval frame. The inscription at the bottom, "De mes Larmes au Ciel J'offre le Sacrifice," signifies her sacrifice and the tragedy of her execution during the French Revolution. The simple yet dignified style of the artwork reflects the somber tone of the period. This print serves as a poignant reminder of a historical figure and a pivotal moment in French history.
