Why are portraits important to Elizabeth?
For Elizabeth it was very important to keep her looking young and strong, so that people would give her respect and accept her not as a weak and selfish princess but as a strong and reliable man in a skin of woman. Elizabeth demonstrated how rich and powerful she was. She used her portraits to spread her image around. Elizabeth kept a tight control over paintings of her that were produced.
Like in one of the paintings "Armada" painted in 1588, you could see Elizabeth standing in a strong pose and her hand is on globe shows she is an Empress of the world. The Queen was God's representative, and must be perfect. Her Virgin image could be compared to Mary, mother of God. In those days religion was very important to people so imaging that in front of you is standing Mary, mother of Jesus, makes Elizabeth a holy person.
Elizabeth often would wear pears which symbolise purity of heart and spirit.
