The Rainbow Portrait is of Elizabeth 1.
Because she was sending it to friends to show the meanings.
The rainbow represents peace.
controlling the weather and bright colours
The eyes and ears on her dress to show she is always watching and listening. The serpent on her arm to show wisdom. The pearls in her necklace to show virginity. The cross on her necklace to show she is christian. The wing like things on her back to show that she is an angel. The rainbow in hand shows she is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Her face is pale to show she is not common.
A rainbow! Inscribed in Latin "None sine sole iris" meaning there is no rainbow without sun.
it means there is no rainbow without sun which is basically saying there is no good with me (elizabeth)
It means she is the messenger for the country.
Why would a young painter paint a portrait of Elizabeth I? It was obviously the elder.
to show that it is special
The fruit basket headdress in the Rainbow Portrait symbolizes Elizabeth I's fertility, abundance, and fecundity. It is also seen as a display of her majesty and wealth, as exotic fruits were considered luxurious items during that time period. The portrait aimed to present Elizabeth as a powerful and successful monarch.
i know its because she was just so mean!
