Mary was beautiful; what's interesting is that only one or two portraits show Mary at a very young age with blondish hair, which later darkened into a deep auburn -- nearly red, with the Tudor gold tones that they were famous for. Clearly inherited from her father and grandmother. She had the charms of her father and his passions, as well as the looks of her mother, overall making her more attractive than just physically. Her allure was more in the form of her personality; kind, sensitive, generous, spirited, empathic. Mary was queen in a time when it wasn't smart to be so connected to your own emotions, it was all about pragmatic and ruthless decisions to maintain the country's stability, and your own throne. She was more of a friend, a caretaker, a romantic than she was a leader -- though her courage even intimidated Elizabeth I of England when it came to the Chaseabout Raid of 1565 that shocked most of Europe. Mary was bravely and yet foolishly defiant in some cases, but had great reserves of fortitude when she needed it. It seems Mary went through a slightly awkward phase of development during her adolescence, but by the time she's in her adult reign in Scotland, she's come full circle and is a natural beauty, not much if any makeup at all required. I am one of Mary's biggest supporters and fans -- owning many, many books on her. Thank you SO much for this wonderful work. It's one of my top favorites among your projects!
I became a big supporter of Mary when I learned more about her life through some documentaries I've seen. It's so interesting how some people see her as a plotter and traitor and others as a martir. I lean towards the latter. What an interesting and devastating life she had!Maybe you can recommend some books on her for me. Thanks in advance.
@@mimiandthemuse The definitive biography on Mary is Antonia Fraser's "Mary Queen of Scots", and John Guy's "Queen of Scots." Novels on Mary are numerous, but I vastly prefer Margaret George's unprecedented masterpiece "Mary, Queen of Scotland & The Isles."
I know she is more a mythological figure & there’s different renditions of her but it would be interesting to see your take on Helen of Troy, considering she’s known as having “the face that launched 1,000 ships.”
I'd love it if you did some of the Roman characters as well, Caesar, Octavian, Cicero and such. I know there aren't many portraits of them but I'm pretty sure their busts and death masks can still be found.
A very interesting video about a beautiful queen who was forced to life in a difficult and toxic environment. For some time she played a winning hand in that power game, but ultimately she lost due to some wrong decisions.
Loved this video, as always 👍 This one is special because I've read so much about this Queen, and been in some of the castles were she lived. Such a dramatic and interesting life. Thanks!! 🏴
@@leslieblanco3536 Well, not really. EVIL only appears to be running the world, but in actual fact GOD runs it. There were metaphysical matters of racist religion which pitted both Mary and Elisabeth against each other. Mary became a victim of cowardly male preferences against red haired half-Phoenicians who looked like Mary, which in turn actually became a curse on England's choices later on, and the great empire collapsed...Britain is very small today...and is dwindling into the average size of a what a normal nation ought to be. And Elisabeth II ended up being half-Phoenician anyway. Prince Harry is a red-head! That was divine justice in the long run. Prince Charles and his mum look like a Romans. England not only divorced from their German Saxony heritage, but the house of Wales is Celte-Phoenician and the Brexit is further proof that a new mixture is always independent. If "Mary" as a name was indeed fond of witchcraft (as many claimed), then her murder would have spellbound others, simply because esoteric paranormal has a loyalty to the name "Mary" for a very real reason.

Mary Stuart should have NEVER fled to England! It was a death trap and such a foolish mistake. They're were so many other Catholic royal houses on the continent she could have sought sanctuary, convalescent, take the time that was needed and build a significant army to win back the Scottish throne.
My guess is that it was purely a logistical reason. She was on the run after escaping her imprisonment in Lochleven Castle and fleeing Scotland by ship was probably impossible. The authorities might capture her at a port and time was of the essence. The closest country was England just a cross the border. She fled under the false impression Elizabeth would welcome her with open arms and aid her in regaining her throne. That turned out to be far from the case and the rest is history. Mary's life could be summarized as a long series of disasters. She's such a tragic figure.

@@kd1306 Her portraits weren't "white-washed". Smh. Pocohantas married an Englishman and even spent sometime living in England. Meaning, she wore European clothing.

I would love to see Katherine Swynford and John of Gaunt but there is maybe one or two portraits of John and none of Katherine who was also reputed to be very beautiful. However, the ideals of beauty changed over time and what was considered beautiful then may not be considered so now.
Mary was heartbroken to leave France when her French husband died young, but she didn’t have much choice. She kept watching France as her ship sailed away to Scotland until it was no longer visible, and was correct in fearing she would never see it again. She wanted a French burial but was not granted it. Still, her burial at Westminster Abbey, with all her descendants, is perhaps more fitting.
@@withgoddess7164 so her burial didn’t turn out the way she wanted, but she is buried with family and her royal blood is respected with Westminster burial, so I think she would have been touched.

@@edithserafina1002 Good luck on your search. It's really interesting to look into the past and find all the people you are related to. It might turn out that we are distant cousins. 😊
Two blows of the axe actually- according to eyewitnesses who saw the execution and even annotated that her lips were moving seem to be praying. But is it even possible to have somebody get beheaded cleanly with only two blows of an axe?
I just watched for the 4th time "REIN" on Netflix...I was crying at the end when she was beheaded. So sad! I just love her story....she was so beautiful!
that show is the least thing you should count on if you wanna know historical facts! real Mary was nothing like that show and didn't have her victories either
I don’t find her particularly that good looking with this oblong face, long nose and bland features. None of the Tudor women were lookers, they resembled Henry VII. Charismatic yes, pretty, no
une top model de l'époque, 1,80 m ce qui était rare, des oncles français les guises, un destin cruel dès le départ mais que d'imprudences commises par cette jeune femme, qui n'a vraiment pas eu de chance, décès de son père, celui de son mari, exil en écosse loin de la france qu'elle aimait, situation politique difficile et mariage catastrophiques et influences amoureuses non moins catastrophiques, complots, assassinats et fin terrible pour marie..pauvre jeune reine si jolie..finir ainsi c'est cruel
Mary was very beautiful and kind looking, the polar opposite of the sharp faced Elizabeth. Elizabeth had every intention of having Mary executed. She made her conditions so unbearable that Mary joined a plot to kill Elizabeth and take the throne. The plot was intercepted and Mary was tried and condemned to death. Elizabeth signed the warrant then pretended that she had not meant to follow it through. This was simply a ruse to exonerate her from the responsibility of the execution. If Elizabeth had not wanted to have Mary executed she would not have signed it. Mary had a tragic life. When Mary fled from Scotland she could have gone to France; at the last moment she changed her mind and went to England in the hope that Elizabeth would restore her to the throne. This was a very ill advised move as Elizabeth simply saw her as a Catholic threat.
I disagree that Elizabeth pretended not to go through with the execution. Reports reveal when she was informed she went into a rage against those who promptly proceeded with the execution. It's difficult to fake that and there was no reason to behave in such a way after signing the warrant. The signing was already acknowledged by the Privy Council and not some state secret. I believe she intended to go through with it eventually, true, but she was not yet ready for the consequences and still emotionally upset about the whole ordeal.
@@jamesaron1967 As pointed out in my previous comment, Elizabeth intentionally made Mary's conditions so unbearable that she joined a plot to have Elizabeth killed then take the throne. The plot was intercepted and Mary was then tried and condemned to death. If Elizabeth had not wanted Mary dead she would not have done this. The fact that she signed the warrant proves that she wanted Mary executed. The state secretary asked her if she wanted him to take the signed warrant but she didn't answer. He then took it and then the execution was carried out. Elizabeth flew into a rage and the state secretary became a convenient scapegoat. The only reason Elizabeth had for being hesitant about Mary's execution was because Mary was an anointed queen and in the same club as Elizabeth. They believed that this was God's will. To execute a monarch undermined this. Elizabeth was highly strung and flew into rages all the time. She was very good at deceit and play acting. She had, after all, once been in Mary's position when her sister Mary I placed her under house arrest. So she knew every trick in the book and exactly how to trap Mary. Mary, on the other hand, was sheltered and somewhat naïve. After she fled from Scotland Mary could have gone to France. Unfortunately she made the wrong choice and hoped that Elizabeth would help her get her crown back. Elizabeth would not have done this for a Catholic and saw Mary as simply a threat, someone to get rid of, and eventually she succeeded.
@@susangavaghan The irony was of course that James VI also became James I of England and Ireland in 1603. Elizabeth new that the Stuarts would inherit the English Crown. Dealing with a current issue of the Catholic threat would not solve the problems in the future. As it is the Stuart monarchy was a disaster for the Crown which led to civil war and the abolition of the Crown in 1649. Although restored in 1660 the Crown has never fully recovered and the person wearing the Crown has become totally powerless in the complexities of the British unwritten constitution.
@@ds1868 Well, James I was not a Catholic. He was brought up as a protestant by his uncle. In fact he was famous for the execution of those involved in the gunpowder plot. They were a group of Catholics who were not happy with how they were being treated by James. The reason Charles I was executed had nothing to do with religion, but that he believed in the divine right of kings to rule over parliament. Parliament disagreed and hence the civil war. When Charles II was restored to the throne, the political climate had changed and monarch's could no longer run roughshod over parliament. When Charles had to flee the country after his father was executed, Catholics hid him in the various hiding places they used for their priests. So although Charles was publicly a protestant, he was actually a Catholic and proclaimed this on his death bed. His brother and successor James was openly a Catholic and wanted equal rights for Catholics. He was deposed and his daughter Mary and her husband William of Orange were brought in as joint monarchs. This clarified that the religion of the country was protestant and no Catholic could ever again become a British monarch. The situation had more to do with individuals and their choice of religion than the entire Stuart dynasty being at fault. England had been a Catholic country until the issue of Henry VIII wanting to get rid of Catherine of Aragon, marry Anne Boleyn and produce a son and heir. Henry broke with Rome but was still a Catholic. When he died his son Edward became king. Edward was an extreme protestant and would have persecuted and killed Catholics had he lived (despite the fact that his mother had been a Catholic). Jane Grey, his successor, would likely have done the same had she not been executed. So when Mary I became queen she began persecuting and executing protestants. Elizabeth did the same to Catholics. So it can be argued that the Tudors were a disaster for the country. Mary of Scots practiced religious tolerance to her subjects. Look where it got her. The problem was that since Henry VIII the country became split into two religious groups, and whichever monarch got into power, then their religion would be the religion of the country and the other group second class citizens. This problem would not have existed if both groups respected each other's differences instead of persecuting and killing them. I don't think Jesus would have wanted that. I don't think that it is a bad thing that unelected, privileged monarch's can no longer rule and dictate to the country and that parliament are the ones who actually rule. Although the prime minster still has to have weekly chats with the monarch, and no doubt the monarchs do influence the prime ministers.
ignorant fantasies of petty people like you! if Elizabeth wanted Mary die or to pressure her so much on purpose, she had 19 damn years to do it! and even after she was trailed, Elizabeth remained hesitant for a very very long time.
I can look at Mary and tell she was a easy going queen unlike queen Elizabeth. She was a loving queen and very tender hearted. You can look at her and tell. She just ran into the wrong kind of men in Scotland .
@@shellc6743 It is quite possible as the two daughters of James I married and have many descendants especially from Sophia Electress of Hanover who was the daughter of Elizabeth Stuart. Consequently Queen Elizabeth II is also directly descended from Mary Queen of Scots.
@@BiG-JuPO1O1 apparently I’m a descendant of hers also. One of my first cousins did some research and got in contact with another cousin from the Muir line of my grandma who stated that not only are we related to Mary but also related to the famous naturalist John Muir. Another descendant of ours was listed as an Obrion from Ireland who as a member of the O’Brian family is descended from Brian Boru, a high king of Ireland. This Obrion left Ireland and eventually settled in Clay county, West Virginia where there is a town named Obrion.
i had no idea Mary and Elizabeth had so many interactions in their youths, or that they very much looked on each other as allies and almost-sisters when their acquaintance began. makes the whole thing that much more tragic.
Interactions through correspondences but they never met face to face despite entertainment industry portrayals. It would be interesting to know how different history would have played out if they met. They could have developed a close bond changing the course of history.
For those visiting London both Elizabeth I and Mary Queen of Scots are buried in the same vault in Westminster Abbey. The two lead coffins are stacked one on top of the other, with Elizabeth I on the top.
people overrated and still do overrate Mary's appearance, acting like she was a goddess like! but from all her portraits, she seems more like a plain generic basic British woman, even when we modernize those portraits! My mother without knowing her, harshly criticized her nose!
She is beautiful. Some say I look like her with my nose. Lol well, I do have ancestors from Scotland. Still working on my tree. My ser name is known to be first found in Scotland. And I am 53 % UK and 42% french. The rest is a mix of other nations. I'm a mixed American. Ty for sharing this. You are a good artist and content creator.
Elizabeth was allegedly furiously jealous of Mary queen of Scot's, because Mary was said to be very beautiful. Elizabeth was in a dilemma. Mary Tudor had declared her parents legitimately married, and that left Elizabeth Tudor with Mary queen of Scots as having the higher claim to England.
you petty infant people always saying that Elizabeth entire problem with Mary or force of life was jealousy for Mary, as if Elizabeth didn't have enough problems of her own, not enough bullshit in her own life in England and the way she grow up and abuse of others. you just want a fairytale that won't exist, so just shut up
I'm actually descended from Margaret Douglas from Margaret Tudor and her marriage to Archibald Douglas. Margaret had an unmarried affair with a Howard, which eventually led to my great grandmother born in Iowa, whose maiden name was Howard. My direct ancestors may have also had the 3rd installment of the Dukedom of Norfolk, but I can't verify that my ancestor Francis Howard was a son that wasn't in line for anything from Thomas IV of Norfolk and Lady Mary Fitzalan. He could have been Baron Francis Howard of Effingham and Governor of colonial Virginia, in which he would be descended from a different branch of the Howard clan
I gather from several sources she was thought to be a ravishing beauty, with an almost otherworldy quality. Actually, she' s rather the Plain Jane type.
there have been some god awful portraits done over the years. who can you trust or believe? Why is she always portrayed as a red head? Are we sure she was 5'11? that seems unbelievable to be honest.

that show is the least thing you should count on if you wanna know historical facts! real Mary was nothing like that show and didn't have her victories either
I don’t find her particularly that good looking with this oblong face, long nose and bland features. None of the Tudor women were lookers, they resembled Henry VII. Charismatic yes, pretty, no
So Mary was second cousin of Elizabeth 1 right ?
She was Elizabeth's First cousin once remove
She was a first cousin once removed
I would really love to see you do Giacomo Cassanova!
Please make a Video of Richard Lionheart and his brother Prince John
How about Georgiana Cavendish, Dutchess of Devonshire? The Dutchess is one of my favorite movies
She was woman, she was Queen. She was martyr
She is A massive improvement over Mary Tudor and Catherine of Aragon in the looks department.
portraits come to life
You should do the Romanovs
She kind of reminds me of Charlotte Gainsbourg, especially at 3:38
The appointment of James, Mary's son sat on the throne of England and ruled England is justice for how Mary was killed.
Thank you, regards from Scotland.

Mary Queen of Scots is my 27th great grandmother; I have her cheekbones.
Why did she marry her second husband?
Please animate Alexander the Great!
My friend Scott said she isn't his queen.

Thats me.😊
Por favor "Maria de Guisa" su madre., igual su tío Enrique de Guisa.
Mary was very beautiful and kind looking, the polar opposite of the sharp faced Elizabeth. Elizabeth had every intention of having Mary executed. She made her conditions so unbearable that Mary joined a plot to kill Elizabeth and take the throne. The plot was intercepted and Mary was tried and condemned to death. Elizabeth signed the warrant then pretended that she had not meant to follow it through. This was simply a ruse to exonerate her from the responsibility of the execution. If Elizabeth had not wanted to have Mary executed she would not have signed it. Mary had a tragic life. When Mary fled from Scotland she could have gone to France; at the last moment she changed her mind and went to England in the hope that Elizabeth would restore her to the throne. This was a very ill advised move as Elizabeth simply saw her as a Catholic threat.
I disagree that Elizabeth pretended not to go through with the execution. Reports reveal when she was informed she went into a rage against those who promptly proceeded with the execution. It's difficult to fake that and there was no reason to behave in such a way after signing the warrant. The signing was already acknowledged by the Privy Council and not some state secret. I believe she intended to go through with it eventually, true, but she was not yet ready for the consequences and still emotionally upset about the whole ordeal.
@@jamesaron1967 As pointed out in my previous comment, Elizabeth intentionally made Mary's conditions so unbearable that she joined a plot to have Elizabeth killed then take the throne. The plot was intercepted and Mary was then tried and condemned to death. If Elizabeth had not wanted Mary dead she would not have done this. The fact that she signed the warrant proves that she wanted Mary executed. The state secretary asked her if she wanted him to take the signed warrant but she didn't answer. He then took it and then the execution was carried out. Elizabeth flew into a rage and the state secretary became a convenient scapegoat. The only reason Elizabeth had for being hesitant about Mary's execution was because Mary was an anointed queen and in the same club as Elizabeth. They believed that this was God's will. To execute a monarch undermined this. Elizabeth was highly strung and flew into rages all the time. She was very good at deceit and play acting. She had, after all, once been in Mary's position when her sister Mary I placed her under house arrest. So she knew every trick in the book and exactly how to trap Mary. Mary, on the other hand, was sheltered and somewhat naïve. After she fled from Scotland Mary could have gone to France. Unfortunately she made the wrong choice and hoped that Elizabeth would help her get her crown back. Elizabeth would not have done this for a Catholic and saw Mary as simply a threat, someone to get rid of, and eventually she succeeded.
@@susangavaghan The irony was of course that James VI also became James I of England and Ireland in 1603. Elizabeth new that the Stuarts would inherit the English Crown. Dealing with a current issue of the Catholic threat would not solve the problems in the future. As it is the Stuart monarchy was a disaster for the Crown which led to civil war and the abolition of the Crown in 1649. Although restored in 1660 the Crown has never fully recovered and the person wearing the Crown has become totally powerless in the complexities of the British unwritten constitution.
@@ds1868 Well, James I was not a Catholic. He was brought up as a protestant by his uncle. In fact he was famous for the execution of those involved in the gunpowder plot. They were a group of Catholics who were not happy with how they were being treated by James. The reason Charles I was executed had nothing to do with religion, but that he believed in the divine right of kings to rule over parliament. Parliament disagreed and hence the civil war. When Charles II was restored to the throne, the political climate had changed and monarch's could no longer run roughshod over parliament. When Charles had to flee the country after his father was executed, Catholics hid him in the various hiding places they used for their priests. So although Charles was publicly a protestant, he was actually a Catholic and proclaimed this on his death bed. His brother and successor James was openly a Catholic and wanted equal rights for Catholics. He was deposed and his daughter Mary and her husband William of Orange were brought in as joint monarchs. This clarified that the religion of the country was protestant and no Catholic could ever again become a British monarch. The situation had more to do with individuals and their choice of religion than the entire Stuart dynasty being at fault. England had been a Catholic country until the issue of Henry VIII wanting to get rid of Catherine of Aragon, marry Anne Boleyn and produce a son and heir. Henry broke with Rome but was still a Catholic. When he died his son Edward became king. Edward was an extreme protestant and would have persecuted and killed Catholics had he lived (despite the fact that his mother had been a Catholic). Jane Grey, his successor, would likely have done the same had she not been executed. So when Mary I became queen she began persecuting and executing protestants. Elizabeth did the same to Catholics. So it can be argued that the Tudors were a disaster for the country. Mary of Scots practiced religious tolerance to her subjects. Look where it got her. The problem was that since Henry VIII the country became split into two religious groups, and whichever monarch got into power, then their religion would be the religion of the country and the other group second class citizens. This problem would not have existed if both groups respected each other's differences instead of persecuting and killing them. I don't think Jesus would have wanted that. I don't think that it is a bad thing that unelected, privileged monarch's can no longer rule and dictate to the country and that parliament are the ones who actually rule. Although the prime minster still has to have weekly chats with the monarch, and no doubt the monarchs do influence the prime ministers.
ignorant fantasies of petty people like you! if Elizabeth wanted Mary die or to pressure her so much on purpose, she had 19 damn years to do it! and even after she was trailed, Elizabeth remained hesitant for a very very long time.
she looks like her cousin a lot
I can look at Mary and tell she was a easy going queen unlike queen Elizabeth. She was a loving queen and very tender hearted. You can look at her and tell. She just ran into the wrong kind of men in Scotland .
One of Mary's 'faults' is that she was kind hearted.Not a popular trait with so many of those in power at that time(& now?)
Fun fact: I am distantly related to Mary on my mom’s side!
How so ? She had 3 children .. 2 died before or just after birth ... her son became King of Scotland and then King of England.
@@shellc6743 It is quite possible as the two daughters of James I married and have many descendants especially from Sophia Electress of Hanover who was the daughter of Elizabeth Stuart. Consequently Queen Elizabeth II is also directly descended from Mary Queen of Scots.
👁 👄 👁
For me Queen Mary is great aunt, I bet they're thousands of relatives out there.
@@BiG-JuPO1O1 apparently I’m a descendant of hers also. One of my first cousins did some research and got in contact with another cousin from the Muir line of my grandma who stated that not only are we related to Mary but also related to the famous naturalist John Muir. Another descendant of ours was listed as an Obrion from Ireland who as a member of the O’Brian family is descended from Brian Boru, a high king of Ireland. This Obrion left Ireland and eventually settled in Clay county, West Virginia where there is a town named Obrion.
She was beautiful. Definitely of the top royal beauties of her time.
i want to see king james of scottland
i had no idea Mary and Elizabeth had so many interactions in their youths, or that they very much looked on each other as allies and almost-sisters when their acquaintance began. makes the whole thing that much more tragic.
Interactions through correspondences but they never met face to face despite entertainment industry portrayals. It would be interesting to know how different history would have played out if they met. They could have developed a close bond changing the course of history.
I miss the face of Richard III in the category of English kings.
For those visiting London both Elizabeth I and Mary Queen of Scots are buried in the same vault in Westminster Abbey. The two lead coffins are stacked one on top of the other, with Elizabeth I on the top.
Actually, it is Mary I and Elizabeth I buried together. Mary Queen of Scots is nearby.
people overrated and still do overrate Mary's appearance, acting like she was a goddess like! but from all her portraits, she seems more like a plain generic basic British woman, even when we modernize those portraits! My mother without knowing her, harshly criticized her nose!
She is beautiful. Some say I look like her with my nose. Lol well, I do have ancestors from Scotland. Still working on my tree. My ser name is known to be first found in Scotland. And I am 53 % UK and 42% french. The rest is a mix of other nations. I'm a mixed American.
Ty for sharing this. You are a good artist and content creator.
zamn shes 5'11
Elizabeth was allegedly furiously jealous of Mary queen of Scot's, because Mary was said to be very beautiful. Elizabeth was in a dilemma. Mary Tudor had declared her parents legitimately married, and that left Elizabeth Tudor with Mary queen of Scots as having the higher claim to England.
Scot not Scott.
@@ds1868 I fixed it so now your comment looks superfluous.
you petty infant people always saying that Elizabeth entire problem with Mary or force of life was jealousy for Mary, as if Elizabeth didn't have enough problems of her own, not enough bullshit in her own life in England and the way she grow up and abuse of others. you just want a fairytale that won't exist, so just shut up
Jesus loves you 💗
STUART'S.
She was very very pretty.
Can you try, Portugal? Fernando I?
Her beauty never came across on canvas. I think it’s likely that her her imposing height, charm and femininity convinced many that she was beautiful.
Her death mask shows her beauty.
Mary and Elizabeth could be twins all that crap about Mary being prettier was just that crap !
I'm actually descended from Margaret Douglas from Margaret Tudor and her marriage to Archibald Douglas. Margaret had an unmarried affair with a Howard, which eventually led to my great grandmother born in Iowa, whose maiden name was Howard. My direct ancestors may have also had the 3rd installment of the Dukedom of Norfolk, but I can't verify that my ancestor Francis Howard was a son that wasn't in line for anything from Thomas IV of Norfolk and Lady Mary Fitzalan. He could have been Baron Francis Howard of Effingham and Governor of colonial Virginia, in which he would be descended from a different branch of the Howard clan
Wow, kinky curly hair....very pretty.
Elizabeth I was absolutely evil to Mary
I honestly thought Mary was more gorgeous then that.
I gather from several sources she was thought to be a ravishing beauty, with an almost otherworldy quality. Actually, she' s rather the Plain Jane type.
agree
there have been some god awful portraits done over the years. who can you trust or believe? Why is she always portrayed as a red head? Are we sure she was 5'11? that seems unbelievable to be honest.
She’s interesting but not innocent as others try to paint her!
