Elizabeth I lived a life of tremendous ups and downs. In her 69 years, she was at one point a bastard Princess, a prisoner, and a glorious monarch - ruling as a woman in her own right. Elizabeth was one of the most astute rulers England ever had. So what did she really look like? In today’s video, we’ll explore her life, history, and true appearance. We’ll discuss which portraits of her may be the most accurate, her resemblance to her mother Anne Boleyn, and of course reveal some re-creations.

I honestly cannot fathom how clever and brilliant she was, to know that in that time, with a mother murdered by your dad, surrounded by men manipulating and plotting to marry and/or murder you, knowing all those perils...

Love it. Although her mother was murdered by her father when she was two, I feel (after reading a number of historical books etc) that Elizabeth would have been more her mother’s daughter than we are lead to believe. Yes she has the Tudor red hair, but it appears looking at recreated portraits of Anne Boleyn as well as written descriptions she had similar features to her mother. It’s very likely she had more her mother’s intellect and personality as well. It has been quoted of Anne Boleyn’s intellect that “On a bad day Anne was Henry’s equal. But on a good day she was his superior.”

Loved this recreation of Elizabeth. Beautiful when she smiles.

@AK-vv1ur Год назад

Absolutely love this. Thank you so much for the informative history and amazing recreations of a much beloved Queen. Elizabeth resembles so much to Cate Blanchet and Meryl Streep. Elizabeth I truly was a mix of both Anne and Henry. She had the famous red/gold Tudor hair and pale complexion, with her mothers beautiful dark eyes and oval-shaped face. She had her mothers intelligence and charisma, but her fathers fierce temper. One can simply imagine the sheer power she held when standing in her presence.

I like to think that Elizabeth's eyes are like her mother's eyes. There are a few portraits of Anne that might've been based on Elizabeth's eyes, since it is to say that was just like her mother's by contemporaries of Anne.

Hi Ingrid Lifestyle I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….🌹🌹🌹🌹

I love how you are able to narrate truthfully their history in a nutshell. Her recreation in modern style appears to show a very likable and intelligent lady.

@reverie6034 Год назад

Beautiful! She’s my favorite historical figure. She definitely had her fathers charisma, intelligence and political astuteness plus the Tudor strawberry gold hair. But her face looks so much like her mother to me. Very well done. 👏👏👏

I get so invested in the history and storytelling that I forget that this video is about how Elizabeth looked like haha I get emotional when I think about their personal lives and hardships this channel really makes these famous figures to be seen as human

@corkycobon1481 Год назад

She was the epitome of the anthem Rule Britania. I have always admired Elizabeth I due to her absolute determination to never have a man tell her what to do. She was fierce in her belief of herself and set a marvelous example for the next Elizabeth to sit the throne. Thank you for this video. The look of her in her mid 20s had me remembering Cate Blanchette as Elizabeth in the movie by the same name but I felt more of an affinity for her in the modern picture of her.

@myfuneralismytimetoshine Год назад

She looked just like her dad! And the amazing thing about this video is that the recreation really shows the resemblance to her father.

@DW-kx6yu Год назад

My heart tells me Queen Elizabeth I would be (is?) very pleased with your interpretation. Well done.

@Tatopotatoo Год назад

That was a beautiful recreation. I can imagine Elizabeth seeing herself like that in the mirror. However, it is untrue that Elizabeth never mentioned her mother. She had great respect for Anne Boleyn and put in a lot of efforts to make apparent her disdain for her dad's actions. She surrounded herself with the Boleyn relatives (Mary's daughter who may be her half sister, the Howard family). Even her governess Kat Ashley was a Boleyn connection!

@anti-ethniccleansing465 Год назад

_“She surrounded herself with the Boleyn relatives (Mary’s daughter who may be her half sister, the Howard family).”_ This doesn’t make sense. Can you please re-write it as normal English sentences that can be easily followed? Mary, the half sister of Elizabeth, wasn’t related to Anne. And what does the Howard family have anything to do with this?

@anti-ethniccleansing465 Год назад

@@Skyebright1 I think you’re thinking of the Chequers ring, which was mentioned in this very video. It shows a portrait of Anne on one side of the ring’s locket, and a portrait of Elizabeth on the other side.

The young Elisabeth touched me, so close to Henry's portraits, whereas the older Elisabeth inspires by her mother's eyes and a great sense of independence shining through...great work!!!

Thrilled to find your amazing channel! Unique blend of academic artistry in history presented with entertaining imagination. You are the complete package! The final older recreation of Elizabeth, as she smiled at us across the ages & thru your brilliant lens suggested Meryl Streep, a modern queen of the arts. What conversations they would have, eh?! Thank you !,

@andrika1990 Год назад

I remember there have been a few on screen portrayals of her but one that really stands out for me is Cate Blanchett's. I also am thinking they possess very similar facial structures according to your recreation which reminds me a bit of Cate. This was an outstanding recreation!

@tjp2109 We were smart enough to create you. You were running around Europe on all 4s. You couldn't speak and had no language. You had no names that very name you have today is black. We ruled over you for 2,000 years. You were peasants, soldiers, and sex slaves. White women were more valuable than gold. We changed the complexion of Europe with white women. The Egyptians, Etruscans, Romans, Greeks, Phoenicians, Vikings culture, and all the nobility kings, and queens of Europe were black up until the 1800s. You have been in power for less than 300 years.
