She looks very much like what the average Portuguese woman looks like now, with variations of course, in hair and eye color, with a bigger or smaller face, etc… Even mixed race I have a few of those traits as well. I could swear that I see her every other day in Portugal A FEW times a day. And have a couple of close friends who look like her, one is a brunette and the other is a red head. She just has a very typical Portuguese face. And in Portugal she is Isabel, not Isabella. Great job with the depictions as always 👍
@Anna Bouler lol Yep, it’s a very typical Iberian face, beautiful tho.
"Even mixed race I have a few of those traits as well". Correction. They have "your" features because they are mixed race, quite black actually, and their current descendants display those traits. Europe's royals are all light-complexioned biracials and many of them still show it.
@Domingo Aguirre Yes but she lucked out in the consanguinity lottery, in that she was good looking. The male Habsburgs did not get so lucky in that department.
I found that compared to the men of Portugal were much better looking than were the women.
She was consider the most beautiful princess in her time
Isabella of Portugal in her time was the most powerful woman in Europe.
Empress of the Holy Roman Empire.
Queen of Spain, and her overseas dominions.
Queen of Naples, Sicily, Sardinia.
Duchess of Burgundy.
PLUS ULTRA 🇪🇦
Isabel de Portugal, was a beautiful and extremely humble woman, power never corrupted her, despite being Empress and Queen.
She protected the American Indians with all her power from the abuses of the Spanish Conquerors, facing Emperor Charles on several occasions, who did not consider him important.
After her death, Emperor Charles, to honor the memory of his wife, protected the indigenous people.
Finally a monarch of my country. Thank you! 🇵🇹
Gracias hermanos portugueses por mandarnos, siempre, buenas reinas de España. 🇪🇸🇵🇹
Una de las mejores reinas que ha tenido España y la más guapa sin duda. España sin Portugal es como un jardín sin flores, e Isabel era la más bella de las flores.
👏👏👏👏
One of a few real love stories amongst the royals. I enjoyed this video!
So interesting to see the "real "face of a monarch so often spoken about and admired here in Spain!!!
This phenomenal page of history comes alive with the faces of Charles V and Isabella of Portugal showing us what they might have looked like. This couple were on top of their game and ruled with honor and dignity and intelligence.
The face of Charles is a spitting image of my late husband and my son! They are our ancestors. Very interesting video! Refreshing delivery! Nice graphics!🎭🤴👸🎪🏰👑
Touts deux descendaient directement et plusieurs fois de Hugues Capet,fondateur de la grande dynastie Française,par les Bourguignons😊
@@jaimequimaime-autrementnon2500 Merci, c'est sympa !
God, she looks almost like Catherine of Aragon. I know, aunt and niece, but it still surprises me how much women in that family looked alike. Too bad in so many portraits their hair darkened and no longer show the golden strawberry blond hair they had.
Isabella I,Juana I, Catherine of Aragon, Empress Isabella; Catherine, Queen of Portugal; Mary I , and I am sure some other of their relatives too.
Juana I was brunette and very beautifull to.
@@Fati.FerreiroAll but one of Juana's potrait darkened(hair did), it's common phenomenon occuring in many mpotraits from 15th and 16th century. Basically chemical reaction occurs which makes hair pigment go dark brown(regardless of what sitter's original haircolour was). Modern conservation cannot reverse it. Because not that many people know of this phenomenon, they assume sitter had brown hair. But we can confirm from period description of royalty that many didn't have brown hair. It is case with Isabella I for certain, none of decription of her throughout her reign says she has brown hair and Juana was never described as brunnet either in her lifetime.
@@maearcher4721 This is so true, and so few people know this! They were much fairer in coloring; it’s such a shame the original paint colors are lost and cannot be restored.
These potraits were heavily beautified according to the era's beauty standards that's why almost everyone in the royal or upper class families looks the same...also the "beautiful" royals were actually very average even sometimes below average looking but due to their wealth and privileges common folks used to idealize them...
@@swastikqjana7128 I both agree and disagree with you. I don't think everybody in royal or upper class portraits looks same. Certainly not in Tudor times, on which I focus on.
(At least when it comes to originals, maybe you've been looking at copies and don't know it.)
I agree some royalty had been painted as betterlooking(Phillip the 'Handsome' got mocked for his ugly looks with his nickname, yet in most of potraits he is not nearly as ugly as in life) and Elizabeth I(espeically later in life), but some didn't care. You can spot long nose of Francis I in his potraits, ugly features of Emperor Maxmilian I, or how grief-striken Isabella I of Castile is in her grieving potrait and how her features point to her health failing. Henry VIII was also painted ugly towards end of his life(but Holbeins painted him from front, angle in which he didn't look as bad as in sketches from side).
On other hand, the angle in which Tudor nobility was painted is least fortunate when it comes to nose. Try before mirror, it really makes nose look twice as large.
So I don't agree that everybody 'fixed' their potraits. I trully don't.
But I do think people lied about beauty of royalty in the past to flatter them.
Yet in late 15th and early 16th century there was surprising amount of rather good-looking royals(at least in comparison to the ugly royals alive at same time). It's not always obvious in paintings though. Either because painter wasn't that good(some really couldn't paint face well), because it is unrealistic copy or because our view of beauty is twisted and we no longer realise what a good looking person looks like without make up and surgery.
Hair colour also played part. Royalty who had period ideal hair-strawberry blond(often described as golden at those days(didn't mean blond)were considered beautiful(most of them). Elizabeth Woodville, Elizabeth of York, Juana I, Isabella I, Catherine fo Aragon, Empress Isabella, Mary I. It was combination of golden hair and grey or blue eyes, which was considered exceptionally beautiful, not just the features of the face(those were mostly just average).
But there were also women with same hair, which weren't considered as beautiful, sometimes due to their religion or simply whom they married.
The first song is so beautiful. Can’t get it out of my head. You should include info about the music for these videos.
I love the first song...galaico-portuguesa. Ai flores do verde pino
She was really the most beautiful woman of Europe and probably of the world, according several sources, including all the embassadors who had the previlege of seing her. She was not only very beautiful as she was inteligent, cultivated, a great royal mother and she executed the political leading paper with extraordinary capacity, which was needed once her husband was the biggest emperor of Europe, ruling so many countries, from Germany, Nederlands, part of France, Italy, Austria and king of Spain, so he had many times to solve problems in North Europe. I would like to thank the author of this video about the face of Isabella of Portugal, because its common to see sites showing portraits not of her, but from other queens named Isabella who were from Portugal, like "Isabella Of Portugal 1397-1471", who was not beauty at all. So, please, lets stop all the misunderstandings about who is who among the Portuguese Isabellas, because Isabella of Portugal wife of Charles V, was really an extremely beautiful woman!
Video muy interesante. Me ha encantado ver a Carlos V, e Isabel de Portugal. Amazing. 😍
I noticed that the pages turned slower now , not racing to the end, is that true ? Thank you so much ! 😙
Isabella was a very beautiful woman. She was also an intelligent and successful regent in Castille and Aragon during the absence of Charles V.
Estaban profundamente enamorados, cuando murió el rey no volvió a casarse
impressing the young Charles. Fantastic reconstruction!
Lovely music.🎵🎵
Your work is excellent! I really enjoy these videos. I'm in the middle of the 2019 Charles V bio. Two small details to mention: Charles had a more pronounced chin than you've given him here, yet painters did the same during his lifetime. Charles V's mummy shows his true chin and often it was described by ambassadors who met him. Isabella died after giving birth to her 9th child, some of whom were still-born. 9 took a greater toll on her body than did 6 births.
very greatly beautyfull madame!she was very intelligent lady and this accompanying music is excellent to hear as reminder of those time!
She was also one of the most beautiful women of her time and the king who loved her very much never recovered from her death.
She was too thin...
Thé true love of Carlos 5❤️
Nice video, good job. Isabella was very beautiful but my goodness, what a hard life they had !!
Great, thank you. She has the hair colour that Catherine was said to have, beautiful, isn’t it? 👵👵👵🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Impresionante ¡¡¡ conocer a estos personajes es fabuloso¡¡¡ excelente¡ gracias¡¡
Top Notch. Never lets us down. TY ❤️
Wish to see more of Habsburg dynasty...
Nice work mannn..
Todos aquí hablan de la belleza de Isabel de Portugal, pero nadie de su capacidad de gobierno. Estaba mas capacitada que su marido, que no sabía nada mas que arruinar España. Probablemente sino se hubiera casado con ella, no habría podido conservar su trono. La represión fue tan brutal, que hasta quisieron excomulgarlo. Alguien comenta que eran los primeros colonialistas, y es verdad. Pero todo el dinero se quedó en las guerras de religión.
Isabella was beutiful!!!
Isabella of Portugal is one of my favorite figures from history: a loving wife, devoted mother, and a sagacious and capable ruler.
She and Charles were well matched. Charles was a magnificent failure. He attempted and failed at unifying the European Continent, but it was an admirable attempt, in the face of overwhelming obstacles. Without Isabel’s capable governance of Spain, his failure would have been more absolute.
Theirs was a genuine love match. Charles never remarried.
Isabel, not Isabella!
It was said that Charles V spoke French to his court, Spanish to his soldiers, Italian to the ladies, and German to his horse.
Hablo en Italiano con los embajadores, en Francés con las mujeres, en Alemán con los soldados, en Inglés con los caballos, y en Español con Dios.
An excellent job and interesting history facts.
Makes ya think doesn't it, Spain and Portugal had colonies in South America a whole hundred years before England started colonizing.
Thank you for these captivating videos. Great job.
Charles V married Isabella for pragmatic reasons : he needed someone to be Regent of Spain during his frequent absences, and a Portuguese princess would be acceptable to the Spanish, as a German or French one would not. Plus, she had a large dowery and he always needed money. But he fell in love with her. "My beloved wife," he wrote, "I kiss this sheet of paper as tenderly as I would kiss your lips if I were with you." After her death, he never remarried.
Acredito que a beleza de Isabel de Portugal era superior ao resultado desse Real Face que certamente não fez jus à sua formosura.
Ela era considerada a mais bela rainha daquela época.
Efectivamente. Su mano era codiciadisima
You don't suppose the proclaiming her beauty was just another thing you did to keep your head in Isabella's world, do you?
Magnificent! Thank you so much for your presentation, history and bringing Monarchs to life. One can see the inbreeding of cousin to cousin marrying with the long prominent jaw of Charles V; poor Charles II of Spain suffered horrifically from this with many deformaties and illnesses. Xxxxx
Lovely music, delightful 🌹🎼🎶
Many thanks!
Fantastico !!!!
your work is amazing
Thanks!!!! 😍😍😍
Your videos are beautiful and educational. I enjoy them very much.

Awesome work
Thank you very much. I asked for it. It's excellent. One of your best works. And all of them are very well. It looks a miracle.

Wonderful video! What is the song? It's beautiful.
Ai flores do verde pino
Muito digno trabalho!
Really magic and awesome..
Thanks for the vídeo. I didn't think you read my comment.
WOW, AMAZING!
Be more respectful, do not call The Mad at the Queen, it has been proven that she was not mad. Juana I.
No one is mad, people suffer from mental illness (which is different!)
We shouldn’t call anyone mad _regardless of who they are! Not because of who they are, Karen! The fact that they were a queen or king is inconsequential. Queens and kings are no better nor more than anyone! So that is not the reason why she shouldn’t have been nicknamed mad. But back then people didn’t know better and did call each other mad, hence the nickname. He wasn’t the one who invented her nickname. It was given to her centuries ago, so calm down.
It is a term used from that time. we live in different times. She grieved for her husband, apparently refusing to bury his body. Not a lot of kindness in her world.
@@marisapaola9010 In fact, the history of Juana de Castilla its pretty amazing. She was in love with Felipe at first, because she was a kid. Later on, not so much. She kept the body unburied for political reasons until her son came back from Flandes. In fact, there's a lot of crazy things that were extremely smart political moves.
@@jamie_d0g978
Well done!
Juana is a very complicated story.
There are no doubts she was outside average and somewhat borderline personality. One needs to consider that her own mother was quite special for her time too. The big difference is her mother just was more at the right place / right timing and was a political mastermind /knew how to pick the best advisors.
Juana still may have had quite the personality and some intellect. But she married into a powerful house and she was nowhere in a position like her mother. Her mother could and did fight her father a lot during their marriage. Juana could not do the same things regarding her husband. Then she also had to deal with incredibly strong parents which would not give her much room for her own decisions. And to top it all, pretty sure her father have had enough of dealing with strong women already when it got to her time. So, no doubt her father had very strong views as to who should be in charge.
Its terribly complicated because Juana got caught in the middle of a big fight for power. She herself wanted to be a player at first. Its obvious she had to be subdued, first to her husband, later to her father. If Juana was anything like her mother, she would not take it lightly!
In fact, one can see signs of the same behaviour in Catherine. Catherine gave enough evidence of being very fierce on her own rights. She was a competent regent to Henry and when Henry tried to push her aside, Catherine always fought in the background to assure her position and her daughter Mary as heir.
Most of them were incredibly strong willed girls. Which, for their times, was not exactly easy.
Even when you get to Isabela of Portugal, she is often remarked for snapping at Charles and trying to impose her views around. And she would not listen to anyone about her safety....dying when everyone knew she should not get pregnant again.
These ladies....they were not ones to fool with :)
Juana just got a very bad hand and could not get power early in life. Later it seems she more or less accepted she could not have power and just said "f* them all, just do not disturb me then". She may well have been somewhat bitter towards her own son too. Its logical given that all those guys constantly usurped her power and never wanted to give her a chance.
I kind of suspect she may have enjoyed Isabela´s visits. Given that Isabela actually managed to be a regent at times, I suspect Juana enjoyed watching one of the ladies pulling strings again ;)
And yes, much later in life, its possible she could have had real degenerating diseases. Her reduced social life would be a key factor and would no doubt increase her chances of mental degeneration. Even more so after her daughter was removed from her. After that, its pretty much not remarkable that she would go down mentally.
As for her earlier life.....its complicated to evaluate. She may have had borderline traits. She may have been capable of some extreme actions. But a lot may have been overblown due to politics. And a lot may have been against her just because she did not get a very strong position where to fight from.
There are several instances however, whenever she takes actual political decisions, she never does anything crazy. Whenever she takes real political decisions, it was always pretty reasonable. So, it becomes very tricky to evaluate her.
What a beauty
She was very beautiful and intelligent.
As always so interesting and great work
Thank you! Cheers!

VIVA LA REINA Y EL REY
I saw the portrait in Madrid. I imagined that it was huge, but instead, it was a wonderful miniature
Isabel de Portugal was an admirable woman, indeed. She was not only extremely beautiful but also intelligent. She was able to keep running his husband's huge empire during his frequent and prolonged absences. She gave name to several cities founded in the Americas during the 16th century. I really doubt thar she was able to isolate Spain from his husband's policies. Historians agree that Spain (Castille, to be more precise) were dragged into Charles V constant wars providing men, but also economic resources through taxes. With Charles I, Castille expanded its influence worldwide like Isabel I, his grandmother, never thought, but at a very high toll. It was through Empress Isabel that his son Felipe 2nd was able to claim the Portuguese throne and unite both empires under one single ruler.
Only 35, such a pity.
58 is hardly a long life, either.
Not in their times. In the 16th century 58 was more than average lifespan.
Could you do next the other sons and daughters of Juana the Mad?
Plz 🙏
Queen Isabel(la) is my namesake 👸🏻
Thank you...i m waiting to know her trully face
Grazie Panagiotis. Sei veramente bravo. Greci e italiani siamo fratelli.
Portuguese beauty
Isabel of Portugal queen of spain and empress of the holy roman empire.
Isabel was known for her exceptional beauty. She was certainly more beautiful than your reconstitution. Her beauty matched her intelligence and virtue, by the way. She was considered an exceptional person. Plus, the accompanying sound is a medieval poem (by King Dionysus) put into phoney "old" music. Sorry for being so negative.
Isabella might have resembled her mother. infanta Maria of Aragon, sister of Catherine of Aragon and Joanna of Castile. Maria herself was described as slender and beautiful just like Catherine and Joanna.
La reina de España más guapa de la historia, de la cual se enamoró san Ignacio de Loyola y tras la muerte de esta fue cuando decidió hacerse religioso.
no, ese fue san Francisco de Borja, no Ignacio de Loyola
Charles didn't look that bad though.
Great work. I appreciate the subtly enlarged chin. In keeping with what became a tragic interbreeding result. I am of the opinion she was one of the most blood thirsty queens ever. I didn't know she died at 35, but it probably saved lives that she did.
Big mistake! Isabelde Portugal was not Queen of Spain, she was never Queen of Spain because the Queen was Juana I her aunt and mother in law who died in 1555 and survived Isabel. Then, she was Empress of Germany, not Queen of Germany.
Joanna first got Kingdom of Castile after the death of her mother also named Isabella. After her father's death Joanna inherited Argon.
So she was called Queen regnant of Castile and Argon.
But politically her Father and after him her son Charles V ruled her Kingdom because of her alleged insanity. So Charles V was technically KING and as his consort Isabella of Portugal was Queen consort of Spain.
One more thing is Charles V was called king of Germany not Emperor of Germany. So she is really Queen of Germany. Charles was Holy Roman emperor. So she is Holy Roman empress.
First empress consort of Germany was Augusta of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach
😊
Isabel de Portugal fue reina consorte de España, y regente en las ausencias del Emperador.
Looks like he had the hapsburg jaw
Yep, their infamous jaw didn't start due to inbreeding, more like lasted due to inbreeding. Already Charles V's grandfather Emperor Maxmillian was horribly ugly. My friend suspects Phillip the 'Handsome' had that nickname as jibe or indirect insult, because he wasn't handsome at all either.
I wonder if Ron Perlman is related to the Hapsburgs however so distantly. He’s got that big chin too.
@@maearcher4721 I guess he was called “the handsome” because compared with the other Habsburgs he was….
He was the epitome of the habsburg jaw. All his paintings flattered him. It is only on a few coins that the extent if the deformity is shown. And his mummy of course.
Ambos eran nietos de los reyes católicos, llevaba el nombre de su abuela Isabel
Pretty lady! Funny how they pretty much used like 5 names for royals and that's it. I kinda like the spelling Ysabel.
name of the song?
"Ai flores do verde pino"
Would you please make a tutorial the way you change this photos into reality ?
Carlos V era rubio, que manía de este que siempre retrata a los monarcas Españoles siguiendo estrotipos falsos, incluso los retratos son diferentes a sus recreaciones, debería ser fiel a ellos y los documentos de la época, donde se describe sus características reales.
I miss the copper tops of Iberia. One of my favorite stops.
¡Perriojas!
ISABELLA
Imperatrix Sacri Romani Imperii.
Regina Hispaniae et ejus finibus transmarinis.
Regina Neapolis, Siciliae et Sardiniae.
Ducissa Burgundiae.
PLVS VLTRA 🇪🇦
he was often criticised by his advisors in their writings for having his mouth open and slack looking. Great job reconstructing!
That was Charles II I believe. Due to heavy practice of marriages inside the Habsburg family, Charles II was unfortunately deformed and his tongue was sticking out of his jaws which made him drool like a dog.
@@davidc4396 listened to biography of charles i, he did the same!
Muchas gracias Panagiotis Constantinou.
Please two more " Real Faces" about christian civilization.
First with Philip II and their four wifes: María de Portugal, Mary Tudor, Isabelle du Valois and Anna of Hasburg.
The second proposal with these five great gentlemen: Don Juan de Austria, Don Álvaro de Bazán, Sebastiano Venier, Agostino Barbarigo and Giovanni Andrea Doria. The Commanders in Battle of Lepanto.
Sure, thing 👍
@@panagiotisconstantinou Muchas gracias. This app is spectacular. Great work!
What's that first song?
Ai flores do verde pino.
Does anyone know the name of the song? Isabella is my 11th cousin. I’m into genealogy, so it’s interesting to see this!
The name of the poem is “Ai flores de verde pino” and the author was King Dinis I of Portugal, who lived between 1261 and 1325. It talks about a girl missing her beloved and asking for his whereabout. The music in the video is just one of a few made on the poem.
How did you find out she's your 11th cousin?
Empress.
I woud like to see Cyrus the great!!! 😍😍😍
She is pretty
Can you do the princess isabelle of asturias? The queen isabella's daughter, the sister of joanna the mad.
What is the name of the background music, please?
It's medieval Portuguese music
The first one is "Ai flores do verde pino" Dom Dinis (cantiga de amigo)
@@florazul-1191 What a beautiful song, thank you ~
@@user-fw3tz5ns5s you're welcome
@@panagiotisconstantinou Can you provide links for both selections please? Thank you. Some of us are very into medieval music.
I have a large brass plate I inherited 50 years ago with the image of a Spanish or Italian Queen.
It says M de M 1600. Does anyone know who this might be?
Ironic the Spaniard known king Filipe II is a son of a Portuguese mother and German father, that's the prof in that times the royal houses have more power then countries.
Please! What do you mean by widespread inflation?
Try for ottoman emperor too
It is Isabel , not Isabella
Now Do Elisabeth of Valois, Marie Louise D' Orleans (Magdalena of Austria) Daughter of Anne of Bohemia and Hungray Margaret Theresa of Spain & Louise of Orleans plz plz can u also do Margaret Theresas Oldest version possible
