Louis XVI of France famously donned the "cap of liberty," a symbol of freedom and the revolution, during a significant event in the French Revolution. When he attempted to show support for the revolutionaries in 1791, he wore the cap during a public appearance. However, this act was seen as insincere, as he continued to secretly oppose revolutionary changes. Ultimately, his association with the cap did little to improve his standing with the revolutionaries, leading to his eventual downfall.
The term 'liberty cap' refers to the conical cap given to a freed slave in ancient Rome. The cap was used to indicate that a person had been a slave and has earned their liberty.
