I like the Baroque era
WOW! You have great galery <3
Thank you!
Actually that other post pre-empted the notion I initially wanted to share with you: while recently watching some videos from the Royalty Now account on YouTube (The creator takes historic persons and tries to bring them into the modern day, sometimes via straightforward reconstruction, sometimes via ‘What would they look like as modern people?’ pictures) it occurred to me that it would be almost equally
interesting to see what historic persons like Julius Caesar, Joan of Arc, George Washington and other, less noted persons might look like had they been born in the same year of a different century.
That is, what if Napoleon Bonaparte had been born in 1869 or 1969 rather than the eighteenth century?
If nothing else this gives us a context which allows us to offer a more specific ‘Might have been’ rather than putting a historic person into modern clothes (Which is often fun, it must be admitted).
Anyway, since I have no artistic skills myself, one wanted to share the notion and hoped you might enjoy it.
Best Wishes and have a lovely day!
P.S. One of the more amusing realisations that occurred to me while doing some calculations was that Elizabeth the First (born in AD 1533) would have been younger than both Queen Elizabeth the Second and Princess Margaret, had she been born in the 20th Century.
Ms. Renaud, I hope that you’ve been keeping well and that my breaking ‘radio silence’ purely to share a notion or two with you won’t be too offensive?
It struck me just today that, if you wanted a change of pace (or wanted to make a little mischief circa April Fools day) you could do worse than to illustrate a HISTORICALLY ACCURATE DISNEY HEROINE in the clothing of the year her film was released, instead of the historical epoch in which her film might be set.
If nothing else it would be interesting to see what relatively modern fashion would look like in your own classic art style!
I am completely bewitched, I did not know that there are fans of History, I see that you are almost as passionate about Baroque art as I am
Thank you! Yes, I'm very interested in the 17th and 18th centuries (early 19th century too)!
