I came across the picture above of a Geisha and it instantly reminded me of the Elizabethans.  The pale skin, beautiful outfits and accessories, I felt it was a perfect comparison.

I chose to look at this picture above because the gentleman’s expression looks scared.  This is what I think Queen Elizabeth felt like inside, she became very well known at a young age which must’ve been scary.  However, I think she hid this persona and put on a front to the country.
