“The first Elizabethan age ended with the discovery of brave new worlds (and incidentally the joining up of the United Kingdom). We are certainly on the edge of vast new unprecedented worlds, cosmic changes in culture, economy and society (and ironically the possible dissolution of the United Kingdom). But are our new worlds brave, cowardly, explorative or degenerative? It could be said the old Elizabethans plundered the new worlds. Perhaps now we can only plunder ourselves and call it trade."

Analysing Queen Elizabeth Portrait

QUEEN ELIZABETH I

ANGELS – the angels above her head could symbolise her angelic and virgin like personality.

BLACK – the majority of her dress is black, this shows the wealth of the Queen because black was a very expensive dye therefore only rich people could afford it.

PEARLS – the pearls around her neck represent purity.

POSTURE – Her right hand (left as we look) is positioned higher but gently on the table.  To me this shows she is stating she is in control and won’t take any nonsense.  Her had is also place next to a sphere which symbolises power.

This portrait was painted in 1590 for the Jesus College in Oxford.  There are a lot of props and objects in this picture which I feel symbolises the Queen’s life.  Nicholas Hilliard was the artist who painted this portrait of Queen Elizabeth.  I think it is beautiful and extremely detailed right down to the curls of her hair.

I chose to analyse this portrait because of the symbolic references through the objects.  I enjoy researching simple things that have a deeper meaning.  For example a ‘sieve’ represents virginity and purity.  I also love the detail that is put into this painting, right down to the individual pearls on her dress.

 

FLORENCE WELCH

            I have chosen this picture of Florence Welch because I think she looks beautiful and elegant just like Queen Elizabeth in the picture above.  Her styling looks perfect and fits her persona well.  There are also some similar elements between the portrait and the picture.

            Skin tone – Florence has a very fair skin tone just like Queen Elizabeth and she doesn’t try change her face shape using contouring.  I think this is good because it shows off her natural beauty which to me is an Elizabethan look.  She also has a quite natural contour on her cheeks which accentuates her cheek bones without having to add more product.

            Eye and Lip make-up – Obviously Queen Elizabeth didn’t wear any make-up as it wasn’t in fashion and the main focus was the white pale skin.  As you can see from the picture of Florence, she is wearing very minimal eye make-up which looks great for the look she is going for.  Although she is wearing red lipstick, you can see Florence is trying to keep her make-up natural and elegant, which I think looks regal.  I think girls of a younger age can look at this photograph and think ‘I can look beautiful without wearing lots of make-up too’.  I also think Queen Elizabeth looked beautiful without lots of make-up, yes although she used lead on her face to lighten her skin, her eyes were never full of mascara neither her lips full of lipstick.

            Lastly, I am going to compare both hairstyles.  Queen Elizabeth has her hair curly and swept off her face.  This shows off her whole face so she can show off her beauty to the country.  Florence’s hair is up in a similar way, she has kept the hairstyle contemporary by keeping her fringe, however the rest of her hair is off her shoulders and plaited.  I feel this completes her Elizabethan inspired look.  Although there is no text to say this is how she has been inspired, by breaking the look down and looking at different elements there are definitely similarities between the two.

On our trip to the City Gallery, I found the painting I wanted to research and analyse very quickly.  I was drawn to the bright colours and unusual shapes that were drawn.  I chose a painting by Selina Snow named ‘Vishnu’s feet’ because it reminded me of an Indian culture which is very close to my heart as my Mother’s side of the family are from India.

The painting also reminded me of reflexology which I find interesting to research.  It fascinates me how a different part of your foot can be linked to different parts of your body.  I like the use of light and dark colours used in this painting.  For example the darker purple outlining the lighter purple feet could be seen as lip liner and lipstick for a make-up look.

The flowers and leaves also caught my attention as I found them vibrant and beautiful.  I feel each flower was carefully thought about and every detail was put in.  This aspect of the painting reflects make-up in the way in which each detail counts.  Everything has its place which means the overall finish is amazing and is worth the time putting together.

In terms of turning this into a make-up look I would focus on defining the features.  For example – using a strong lip pencil to outline the lips along with a bold colour would catch people’s attention.  I would then use soft colours on the eyes such as beiges and browns, but I would then use bold black eyeliner.  I feel this would keep the attention across the whole face rather than drawing attention to one area.  This is how the painting appeared to me, the artist didn’t have a focus point and wanted the whole painting to be looked at.
