Dear friends,
The headless woman was Marie Antoinette. She ruled over France and was found guilty of treason, conspiracy, and stealing from the country.
Also, it was not the Last Supper. It was a depiction of an ancient Greek Bacchanalโฆ because, you know, the Olympics are ancient and Greek. Surprise!
And if you didnโt know, a Bacchanalia is an uncontrollably promiscuous, extravagant, and loud party. The parties often spanned several days which honored the god of wine, Bacchus (the blue guy covered in grape vine). He is also known as Dionysus, the Greek god of fertility, later known as the god of wine and pleasure.
And finally, it was not Death on a pale horse. It was Sequana, Goddess of the Seine, the River in which the boat precession took place. She was meant to be the representation of the Olympic spirit and of Sequana.
If some of you werenโt so busy trying to end the Dept. of Education, you might know this.
Loosen the clutch on your pearls and get your panties pulled out of your A** ๐
Yours truly,
Lady Francis
