Queen Elizabeth I 

Queen Elizabeth I was the daughter of the volatile King Henry VIII, through his second wife Anne Boleyn. After her mother’s untimely death at the hands of her father, Elizabeth’s rise to Queen of England and Ireland became significantly more precarious as she fought diplomats and family members alike for power.

During her reign, she became known for religious and political tolerance, preferring peace with potential adversaries rather than conflict. Her striking red hair and porcelain skin, makes an impression on both historical portraits and with her modern presentation.
