The Young Elizabeth I - 2008

18” portrait with a porcelain torso, head and arms on hand-carved, spring-jointed wooden lower body

Elizabeth reigned as Queen of England for 45 years, displaying strength and devotion as she united her country following the tumultuous years after the death of her father, Henry the Eighth.

Wendy Lawton chose the young Elizabeth for this portrait doll. She is dressed in a heavy gown of cranberry silk satin over a petticoat and undersleeve of silk brocade, reminiscent of the William Scrots painting of The Princess Elizabeth (1546).

The exquisite gown is trimmed with gilt braid encrusted with pearls. Elizabeth’s eyes are dark brown and her hair that famous reddish gold.
