I find the smiles truly emotional. I guess that's because traditional and official portraiture so rarely shows a smile or a warm expression. Seeing these people smile feels like a true gift. From the writing, research, editing, and recreations, you both do fabulous work.
Same. George Washington's reveal has to be my favorite. That was the first one that I was TRULY emotional over. Even her modern interpretation of him.... SO GOOD.
As a person who lives in Egypt it’s fascinating to see how Hatshepsut looks like any ordinary Egyptian woman I would see at the mall today 😊 beautiful! 👍🏻☺️
There is a big difference genetically between ancient Egyptian royalty and modern Egyptians. They were blonde or reddish haired, with blue or green eyes.
@@gracetruthandlightthey had brown skin for certain, and hair color is hard to know for certain but it likely wasn’t blonde nor reddish except for outliers
My favorite thing about Richard III is they did the forensic reconstruction and didn't tell them who it was supposed to be.. when they were done it was obviously, unmistakably Richard III. which among other things tells you how accurate medieval portraits were.
This reconstruction may even be a bit more accurate. The one from his skull would probably not take into consideration the strain he was under those last two years, between the deaths of his family and the ongoing attacks by Henry's faction. The portrait and this image show that strain's effect. But Shakespeare's fantasy will never again be the true "portrait" of young kink Richard III.
Thank you :) She is one of my favorites too. Even though we don't have a true portrait of her, something about that one rings true to me and I'm proud of it. Hope have a great holiday season!
Those same ppl Joan of arc saved, killed her! Not only killed her but burned her alive’ it makes me so mad, I actually cry when I think of her being betrayed by the same king she helped put on that throne!
Remember in Peabody and Sherman they had the wayback machine and would time travel to many famous periods in time and see all the historically famous figures? This channel is my wayback machine 😊
These are stunning. Harriet Tubman not only saved over 300 enslaved people in the Underground Railroad, she also helped free over 700 enslaved people during the combahee river raid. She was awesome.
Red-haired Macedonian Greek Queen of Egypt, Cleopatra so far has been my favorite. Absolutely stunning and makes it easy to understand how great and powerful men like Julius Caesar and Mark Anthony were under her spell. Great work all around. Cheers.
@@angelg2638Liz Taylor played the part of Cleopatra who was of Greek descent. The two main differences between Liz and the real Cleopatra are that Cleopatra was a redhead and not all that good looking.
This is seriously my new favorite channel! Can't wait to see what you have in store for 2024! I would love to see a video on Princess Cassandra of Troy (that's where my name came from)
Thank you for this beautiful retrospective. I find every one of your recreations emotional - they introduce historical figures as real people. I’m looking forward to what 2024 brings!
These are so cool! Im obsessed! I so much love these historical figures- especially the English historical side, for me going into the Westminster Abby and seeing so many of them residing there was also as amazing as these vidoes are in making these people we only can read about- REAL. It truly reminds you that these arent just stories. Well done
I wouldn’t say Helen of Troy was particularly “beautiful”, but definitely attractive. I like how you portray historical figures smiling…surely people have always smiled.😊
I believe much more pretty than her Cousin Elizabeth I, and certainly more than Queen Mary, her other cousin. The Tudor is more blunted in her. Do we have a recreation of her Son James VI?
if Helen made thousands of ships go to war, then I'm just glad my fiancée wasn't born at the time. her smile would have single-handedly caused the collapse of the ancient civilization
all these are awesome - but I have to say the reconstruction of George Washington reminds me a bit of Joaquin Phoenix. I actually thought it was him at first glance. I had to go back and rewatch it!
Im a new sub and i have so far watched 3 of your videos. These are just amazing. I cant wait to watch them all. They are fascinating. Thank you so much!
Your work is brilliant! I'm enjoying every one of your creations.I would love to see your presentation of the young and older King Henry the 8th. Many thanks.
Wow! I just discovered this channel. It is truly amazing!!! I love Becky's voice. Does anyone else agree that Jane Austin and Joan of Arc could have been sisters?
Thank you for a beautiful capstone to the year's work. Finding a quality channel on YT is quite difficult, so I'm glad yours turned up. I was especially intrigued by the modern version of George Washington. I expect someone has mentioned it below, but he looked to me rather like actor Liam Neeson.
The smiles...to see these historical figures of massive importance smile, especially after all of their portraits depict them with such staunch and stoic expressions...that is what truly brings them to life. Their smiles make them so much more approachable. As far as who I would like to see a recreation of in 2024, one who immediately comes to mind is Massasoit. The Wampanoag sachem who forged a rather tenuous but vital peace with the Puritan settlers of modern day Massachusetts in 1620.
You do absolutely fantastic work. To see people who are long gone from this world. We hear stories and tall tales but your work showed us that even with the tales they are still people like us.
Your talent is amazing and your videos are absolutely intriguing. You’re a genius. I can’t understand why this channel doesn’t have millions of subscribers. Have a safe and happy New Year.
+robynsegg Not me, I don't like artists doing "modern interpretations".of historical people. They are after all not modern people and I find it disrespectful to them.
This is an excellent video!! This recreations and movements, smiles, nice eyes,make me think I could see anyone of those people anywhere, what I try to say is: those statues or the paintings are just that and the people painted seem far from being people, as for example this white marbel statues: but in this video, everyone was still alive !!! Sorry for my english as is not my first language, but my third. Hope you understand my point…😅 Greetings from Colombia 🇨🇴!
Any person of history that you recreate is genius and beautiful work! I especially love the historical back story. Your channel is better than going to history class!!
Incredible recap! Thank you for the beautiful work you share with this community. You put your heart and soul into each recreation. It's a joy to experience and learn from. Cheers to you in 2024 💛
I love your videos. It's absolutely amazing how you bring historical persons to life. As a German it would be very interesting to me how King Friedrich II. from Prussia (1712-1786) would have looked like. Maybe you can bring him back to life, too.
Helen of Troy... while she is somewhat different from what Hollywood and such would regard as "most gorgeous" today it is easy to see how a people might utterly idealize the face that you created. Beauty may be subjective, but some beauty is timeless and cuts across cultural lines. I do like the conception of George Washington in a contemporary setting.
According to Richard III s DNA, he had golden hair like the other Plantagenets. I don't know why he was portrayed with dark hair in the contemporary depiction except to wonder if the pigments darkened over the centuries.
None of the ‘portraits’ known to us of Richard, as Duke or king are from his lifetime or near lifetime much less known to be by artists authorized by him or his House to paint him so whomever left those paintings, or copies of the ‘originals’ is at best guesswork for us - especially with all the efforts made to raise the shoulder to imply a hunchback etc - some portraits show Richard with such a cramped, pinched, sour face I initially mistook him for Henry of Richmond (Henry VII)
@@serahloeffelroberts9901Kind of... 🤷♀️ Him having blonde hair doesn't automatically mean he had light coloured hair. Dark blonde hair can be quite a bit darker than some shades of brown. That said, apparently the type of blonde Richard's hair was supposed to be according to the DNA, tends to darken as the individual grows into adulthood. So, as a young child, he likely had light blonde/golden blonde hair, which darkened as he grew into an adult and became a dark blonde. And that's actually what we see in the portraits of him, even though they aren't contemporary but near-contemporary copies. The exact shade of a haircolour, unfortunately, cannot be determined by DNA. So, how light or dark his hair was ecactly in adulthood, is anyones guess. Anyway, according to my former hairdresser, while most people consider blonde hair as light in colour and brown as darker, it's more about the undertones. Blonde is cool toned and brown warm toned, but neither has anything to do with how light or dark the hair might be.
You guys are the BEST. Which subject would you be most excited to see in 2024?
I love your work. It would be great if you could do Zenobia, Queen of Palmyra
Roman and Byzantine Emporers and Empresses, please 🙏 !!!!
how about queen Esther from the bible?
Perhaps some personalities from the Bible - Old and New Testament.
Charlemagne, or Sissi.
I find the smiles truly emotional. I guess that's because traditional and official portraiture so rarely shows a smile or a warm expression. Seeing these people smile feels like a true gift. From the writing, research, editing, and recreations, you both do fabulous work.
Thank you :) I always find myself smiling back at them during the re-creation process. I love them too.
I can’t help but smile back. 😊
They are remarkable especially Louis 14 when he smiled he looked so happy
Same. George Washington's reveal has to be my favorite. That was the first one that I was TRULY emotional over. Even her modern interpretation of him.... SO GOOD.
I actually cried a little when I saw Joan of Arc smiling, it seems to me that she didn’t do that very often, her life was so hard.
As a person who lives in Egypt it’s fascinating to see how Hatshepsut looks like any ordinary Egyptian woman I would see at the mall today 😊 beautiful! 👍🏻☺️
There is a big difference genetically between ancient Egyptian royalty and modern Egyptians. They were blonde or reddish haired, with blue or green eyes.
@@gracetruthandlight Who is "they"?
@@azzteke did you read my comment? Ancient Egyptian royalty.
Well, I need to go shopping in Egypt because Hatshepsut is a hottie.
@@gracetruthandlightthey had brown skin for certain, and hair color is hard to know for certain but it likely wasn’t blonde nor reddish except for outliers
I can't help but smile right back. I feel a little more connection to the humanity of the individual when the art comes to life with a smile.
My favorite thing about Richard III is they did the forensic reconstruction and didn't tell them who it was supposed to be.. when they were done it was obviously, unmistakably Richard III. which among other things tells you how accurate medieval portraits were.

@lefantomer Tap the 3 dots , upper right of posts. One of the options is Edit.
Love the story of Boudica. She was amazing.
Thank you for all your incredible and breathtaking recreations! Joan of Arc is my favourite! :) Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
Thank you :) She is one of my favorites too. Even though we don't have a true portrait of her, something about that one rings true to me and I'm proud of it. Hope have a great holiday season!
@@RoyaltyNowStudios I totally agree - I really think you captured her bravery and resolve! :)
Those same ppl Joan of arc saved, killed her! Not only killed her but burned her alive’ it makes me so mad, I actually cry when I think of her being betrayed by the same king she helped put on that throne!
It’s sad how young she was and they did that to her . She was brave , I’ll give her that .
According to legend, her heart was found intact and unburnt in the ashes.
I thought the English burnt her, not the French!
@@dianemoxon9809 I believe it she was a goddess
@@marietteestabrook4098 The catholic church burned her.
Thanks!
Thank you ❤️ hope you’re having a wonderful NYE

Absolutely amazing. Beautiful. !!!! Thank you.

I loved the Wayback Machine!! And agree.
I'll go way back and try to get with Hatshepsut. Damn, she is fwine.
These are stunning. Harriet Tubman not only saved over 300 enslaved people in the Underground Railroad, she also helped free over 700 enslaved people during the combahee river raid. She was awesome.
Extraordinary woman !
lose the music - can't hear clearly - who can choose music for another?
Harriet Tubman actually had a misshapen head because her master threw something at her head.
These videos bring me so much joy. Thank you for your work and sharing it with all of us!
Thank you so much!

Please do the story and recreation of Dido Belle, including a modern day version.
The recreation of George Washingtom where he's sitting at the desk looks like Liam Neeson.
Justin Trudeau.
Bobby Flay
@@tt-ew7rx Don't use the name of that little pansy girly man and the great George Washington in the same sentence LOL.
Nicely and tastefully done.

Helen of Troy never existed. She is part of the Greek mythology.
I’ve always thought Mary Queen of Scots was so beautiful. She had such an interesting and, at times, tragic life.
Ее,здесь_исказили!Нет,ни одного ее настоящего портрета!Видно,так ее"любят",что везде по-разному,изображают!🌹
I believe much more pretty than her Cousin Elizabeth I, and certainly more than Queen Mary, her other cousin. The Tudor is more blunted in her. Do we have a recreation of her Son James VI?
George Washington is my favorite. Fascinating to see the modern likeness.
He is much better looking than the Gilbert portrait we grew up with in the classroom. He looks like he could be the spy master of a spy ring
I found the modern likeness of Washington surprisingly moving.
I did too.
@@VL99
amazing from these pictures
Masterfully done, beautiful!
King Louie would literally be in a rock band today!
I truly enjoy each and every episode. Thank you for making history even more exciting ❤
You are correct about no wooden teeth. Sorry for my false comment. You do a marvelous job.
Impressionnant , instructif aussi ...
quel boulot vous avez fait !
Your skills with illustrations have really come a long way! Bravo!
George Washington is my favorite. What a man.
7:41 - the smile made me laugh out loud
Great work bringing them all to life.Have a Happy Christmas 🥰
Happy christmas :)
if Helen made thousands of ships go to war, then I'm just glad my fiancée wasn't born at the time. her smile would have single-handedly caused the collapse of the ancient civilization
Yeah they were a lot more fragile back in those days lol
That's so sweet.
It would be nice to see Alfred the Great and his family.
Thank You ❤
I love your channel! I would like to see more of the renaissance artists! Especially Raphael!
My favorite part, by far, is your modern interpretations. They're mind-blowing somehow
This is just a thought. Do you think the hidden portrait behind Queen Elizabeth the 1st could possibly be Queen Mary of Scotts?
Thank you for all your hard work bringing these fascinating and important figures to life! ❤
all these are awesome - but I have to say the reconstruction of George Washington reminds me a bit of Joaquin Phoenix. I actually thought it was him at first glance. I had to go back and rewatch it!
This is pure modern art. It's beautiful
Beautiful portraits of Historical, 'Live' women and men. Thank you. Your vision is amazing ❤😊
Helen of Troy story is in the Illiad not the Odyssey.

That statue of Joan of Arc is adorable! She looked like a doll! That tiny little nose and doll eyes
The Smiling with perfect teeth! . Nah,I don't think so, tooth decay, crooked,and stinking mouths, would be more like the norm
Not always. Sometimes ancient mummies and skulls had great teeth.
Shows you have zero knowledge of history. Pick up a book
