      I can confirm that immortals do this.
      My Latin teacher looks just like Montisque (? How does one spell Roman names?)
      He isn't pretending as well as Morgan though, clearly. He's a Latin teacher, speaks almost entirely in Latin and it's 2020.

  • @feed8647
    @feed8647 3 ปีที่แล้ว +44

    Maybe a bit late but fun fact from a goldsmith: She is actaully wearing pearls. Back in the day they usually weren´t round or pear shaped but much more uneven an "splatter like". This had to do with the type of pearl mussels available (mostly from rivers and the mediterrean sea, both of wich aren´t known as origins of high quality, evenly shaped pearls) Most natural round shaped pearls today come from the Caribbean and Haiti and are quite expensive, the cheaper ones are cultivated mostly in China or Japan and have a fake/hand applied core and only a few layers of mother of pearl. That´s also a reason why older necklaces with pearls still look good today (with proper handling and care) while the cheaper ones loose their mother of peal exterior pretty fast :)

    OMG! Absolutely gorgeous! I want to find my 1800 (or earlier) doppelganger! I have always wondered what the people really look like behind the portraits. The painters of that time make their subjects almost appear too soft, cartoon or doll-like. It's hard for me to imagine the real face. You have done this portrait of this young lady justice!

  • @lasphynge8001
    @lasphynge8001 5 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    Hm, I wonder if, in fact, the 4 strands braid doesn't actually turn into a regular 3 strands one somewhere above the ear... you can't see the 4th strand in the middle anymore beyond that point, and it would make sense to redistribute the hair from 4 to 3 strands when thickness start tapering, this way each individual strand remains the same thickness for a bit longer... I'm not sure, it could just be that the 4th strand is less visible but still there... I guess I'll have to try this theory for myself. :-p

    I love historical doppelgangers! I hope someday you make a dress similar to hers. This was so awesome to see. You made that 4 strand braid look so easy. I guess it might be because I am self taught and always thought over, under, over, under not twist the outside and exchange the inside. If I ever make another attempt at making a four strand braid I will try using your method. That was fun to watch. I can't wait to see what else you come up with.

  • @Chibihugs

  • @RhomanysRealm
    @RhomanysRealm 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've extended 4 strand braids before and it actually works a little better if you stagger it by adding half to one central exchange, twist, then add the second to the next central exchange. It avoids the 'hips' look in the middle of your braid by splitting the additions.

  • @pippaseaspirit4415
    @pippaseaspirit4415 ปีที่แล้ว

    I do four-strand braids just like a plain weave (left hand section goes over, under, over, and ends up on the right, repeat to end). You’d think it wouldn’t work, but it does. The advantage of this method is that you can extend it to five-strand, six-strand or even seven-strand braids before it begins to get slightly lopsided.
