Every Tudor at the National Portrait Gallery Part 2 - Elizabethan Intrigue (A Guided Museum Tour)

[@kathrynd5158]

I've seen nearly all of these paintings before, either in history books or internet searches, but it's just dawned on me that these are the originals 🤯

[@TheMuseumGuide]

It’s surreal to see them in person!

[@dougtagg9162]

It is so true that to see the paintings in person is so different than seeing them in a book. I was fortunate to see the Tudor exhibit at the Cleveland Museum of Art last year. It’s was an amazing experience.

Always a lovely tour. Thanks Jessica. I second your idea of an Elizabethan spy show haha

[@TheMuseumGuide]

I wish! 🤣

[@catherine6653]

[@TheMuseumGuide]

[@lauranagle1577]

Amazing two part video Jessica, thanks so much. I really appreciate how much effort you go to with your tours. Can't wait for the next one! ❤

[@TheMuseumGuide]

You are so welcome!

[@tgill2943]

Thank you so much, Jessica. You had a lot of history to cover, a very admirable job. Once again, the paintings were allowed to speak and be marveled at. Wow from Colorado USA.

[@TheMuseumGuide]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you kindly.

Another incredible video -- thank you! I've always felt so sorry for Lady Jane Grey. She didn't want the throne, but it was forced upon her, leading to her execution. She was a little, innocent pawn in a horrific battle for power. P.S. You should read the play "Elizabeth Rex" by Canadian author Timothy Findley. I think you'd find it fascinating :)

Thank you!

You're welcome!

Omg..sooooo many Mary's.

[@liliyao1965]

Hi Jessica, I love your videos and would love to have a private tour with you at National Gallery. Please let me know if its possible.

[@TheMuseumGuide]

Hello! I just had a baby 3 weeks ago, so I won’t be guiding until April. :)

[@liliyao1965]

Congratulations! @@TheMuseumGuide

[@nancytestani1470]

Elizabeth is not cold looking, just direct look..no wall flower here..just Les majesties.

[@TheMuseumGuide]

You are right!

[@lilpenny1982]

It's interesting that all of Queen Elizabeth's favorites were executed whether by her or by her predecessor.

[@TheMuseumGuide]

Other than Dudley, of course!

[@lilpenny1982]

@TheMuseumGuide She nearly executed him but love prevailed. ❤️. Too bad her father didn't know what this meant

[@nancytestani1470]

They all did kings and queens, not just the Tudors.

[@lilpenny1982]

@@nancytestani1470 Not as much as King Henry and Queen Elizabeth I 🔪🪦

[@marypartridge5154]

Yes the term we use in England is "crowned". The English language not American slang.

[@TheMuseumGuide]

There are no Americans in this video.

[@lilpenny1982]

Was Robert Dudley's father executed by Queen Mary I? Based on the TV series "Becoming Elizabeth", Robert Dudley's father was against Queen Mary 1 and made her life miserable.

[@sheiladay567]

Yes, and his grandfather Edmund Dudley was executed by Henry VIII at the beginning of his reign!

[@lilpenny1982]

@@sheiladay567 I think the Norfolk's suffered the same fate 🗡

Some sort of technological error on my part, apologies

[@valkyriesardo278]

I have heard that Mary considered the burning of heretics a religious obligation. She felt it would be a betrayal of her faith if she failed in that duty. I am not saying I applaud her for that conviction, but only that it was not done solely for malicious entertainment. I think I have not encountered any faith on this planet that has never stooped beneath the standard of basic human decency.

[@skepticalmaiden]

Mary of Scotlands downfall was her impulsive nature.

[@lilpenny1982]

RIP Queen Mary 1, Queen Catherine of Aragon and Queen Mary of Scots #catholic

[@divaden47]

PLEASE don't use that silly expression "Coronated". The term to use is "Crowned". This is on a par with "Gifted" instead of "Presented".

[@TheMuseumGuide]

That’s a matter of opinion; I prefer it to crowned but I’m fine with either. Thank you for watching!
