During this Period We Have Learned a Lot

 260 Years Ago Today She Looked Very Real

Tuesday 1st of December 1761
Wax sculptor Marie Tussaud is born as Anne-Marie Grosholtz in Strasbourg, Bas-Rhin, France.

We have several siblings with whom we have more than a few common experiences in life and we have learned a few things along the way, from the experience of studying together in France. We have even been to the Great Pyrenees where we met some of the kings who were born during the times of Louis XIV and from there to the time of Napoleon II. From a young age Marie's father was trained as a scholar and she has developed her knowledge of the history of Europe. While Marie has never studied at home she enjoys learning more about her country, but also about her family. During this period we have learned a lot: The origins of Germany's great civilisation; the importance and importance of women in Europe; the birth-control pill (known as the pill of sterility) used by British physicians; the ancient Greek goddess Athena which is said to have been involved with the fertility of animals and plants, fertility that contributed to the spread of Rome and the beginning of the Roman Empire; the origins of women's sexuality; the origin of civilization and the beginning of gender equality; women's love of women and gender equality; and the idea of the mother, woman, man and man having the same quality of a wife and mother.
