Queen Victoria - The Grandmother of Europe - British Monarchs - Prince Albert

One of the hardest projects I had to work on, as the face of Queen Victoria was always changing during her life, from teenager to maturity, while she struggled with depression and obesity. Queen Victoria is associated with Britain's great age of industrial expansion, economic progress and, especially, empire. Victoria gave birth to 9 children who got married into royal and noble families across the continent, earning Victoria the sobriquet "The Grandmother of Europe." We also look at the face of her husband Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, the Prince consort.

I really enjoy this type of videos! It´s stunning the England´s monarchs. Queen Victoria was an iconic person in that era! Congratulatios for this!!

[@barbarablue2571]

Victoria and Albert what two sweet expressions they had!

[@betsyr4724]

Talented young man who brings history alive. Thank you.

[@gonefishing167]

Gosh, Princess Beatrice looks so much like her! In the portraits anyway. They have those same eyes. 👵👵👵🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍👍

[@sassytbc7923]

I didn’t notice that til I saw your comment but indeed she does.

[@nancycolbert2703]

Yes. Always thought Princess Beatrice was a mini Queen Victoria. She also married a very handsome man.

[@beth3471]

It’s easy to forget she was young once! Thank you for all your work.

[@Goodstuff74]

This has got to be the coolest way to learn about history. Absolutely fascinating and fantastic....thank you

[@tekannon7803]

Thank you for illuminating the life of Queen Victoria. Life is so hard for all of us and many times we have challenges that seem impossible to overcome. Losing Prince Albert at only 42 years old almost made her lose her footing and it's a lesson for all of us that no matter how hard we get hit, we have got to find a way to turn the page and move on.

[@boschmagkwanghoka2542]

the most disgusting couple of predators who raped the entire planet, enjoy. he was handsome though

[@zzzbbbooo]

And Victoria did do that, though it took her the best part of ten years.

[@frankcorr6566]

She needed men. With the passing of Albert John Brown became her masculine figure. Later in life it was Abdul Karim. Mrs. Brown is a great movie. Billy Connolys best work.

[@carocatho]

Prince Albert had such gorgeous eyes, and he passed them on to generations of royals all over Europe.

[@pegasusu1094]

Also wow, Princess Eugenie really did inherit most of Victoria's looks

[@AM-qp2wx]

You mean Beatrice, not Eugenie.

[@florenceoztas6186]

Eugenie has inherited the likeness of Elizabeth the Queen ‘s Mother.

[@bettygorman4545]

Your work is amazing! It “brings to life” what painters only dreamed they could accomplish! Thank you!

[@debbierichens3910]

I am absolutely amazed at the fact that it is now possible to illustrate how people from hundreds of years ago such as kings and queens, would actually have looked “in the flesh”, rather than how they appear in portraits. Well done for producing the incredible images.

[@alicequinn290]

that looks nothing like her new literally have photo graphs of queen Victoria

[@markofsatan9617]

@@alicequinn290 The only actual photographs are of and older Victoria. After a lifetime of over indulgence. Of course they are going to look different to the younger ones.

[@terrybardy2848]

The faces look so authentic, you would swear that it was real! Thank you! Well done and Bravo!!!!👍👍👏👏👏👏❤️

Wow Queen Victoria is so regal in her 1859 rendering, I almost curtsied! 😂

Imagine what a history teacher could do with these sorts of videos. Students could actually see who they are learning new about.

[@panagiotisconstantinou]

Actually several teachers are showing these to students in class during history lessons to make it more interesting.

[@mariechristensen8390]

Thank you so much. Keep them coming. Awesome hard work. Much appreciated

[@mclovin7375]

Well done! Queen Victoria and Albert have such typicall german looks, like the germans in my neighborhood.

Well they were technically Germans. The British preferred foreign Protestant King to a Catholic British one.

I'm surprised that my comment was removed. It was not mean, provocative, disrespectful in any way. On the contrary. I just asked if it were possible to have the 3 great Italian Renaissance Masters Raphael, Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, portrayed. That was all.

[@curtyeomans8446]

The thing about Queen Victoria and Prince Albert is that they were the first British monarch and consort to actually be photographed so we know what she actually looked like from middle age onward

[@andrea6421]

Ohhh been waiting for this one 👍🏻😁

[@sugarlilydesigns1]

Love your posts 😊

[@florenceoztas6186]

Amazing!

[@leticiagarcia9025]

They were both attractive in there youth. I don’t know if it’s just me but, in her older portraits she looks lonely and sad. I can see that she misses her husband. Thank you. Look forward to your next video.

[@MsAngelique]

Her husband was dead in her older portraits.

U can see victoria vibes at Princess Beatrice ,daughter Prince Andrew duke of york

[@spankflaps1365]

Queen Victoria was the original ‘chinless wonder’, and she didn’t find out until later life that 90% of the British public lived in abject poverty.

[@Stand663]

So how did people live in your country. ?

[@Rosiecrossley1]

She did know from the day she ascended the throne she worked tirelessly to bring poverty to an end but failed due to her selfish behaviour she couldn’t comprehend why so many people were poor

[@wplains]

Almost all of Europe, the US and the rest of the world lived in abject poverty. We are the privileged generations.

[@patriciamorris471]

I'm not a royalist but this woman is fascinating

[@deborahkogan8742]

Albert was really handsome!

[@angelacooper8973]

Prince Albert should have been her King consort. Born queens deserve to have a King consort as Kings can have Queen consorts.

[@janetpendlebury6808]

The proper title for the husband of a ruling monarch is "Prince Consort." The title of "King" is only given to a male who inherits the throne and reigns as monarch. A king is automatically ranked higher than a Queen so she, nor our currant queen could have a King consort.

[@catherinebroughton6059]

brilliant

[@cloggy010]

brilliant!

[@janetjajola3550]

Love the visual on these portraits. Adds life and Understanding to the royal line.

[@jandietrich2004]

The eyes are wrong. Take a look at a picture of Princess Beatrice who closely resembles her ancestor, Queen Victoria.

[@jamellfoster6029]

Queen Victoria was very pretty when she was young and even into middle age before she became so grief stricken that she aged prematurely. But even in her old age, she looked well.

[@AP20680]

No, sorry she wasnt.

[@albertschmitz8094]

[@adorejunk]

Princess Beatrice looks just like Victoria.

[@dianekennedy7086]

Thank you for this nice piece. I see Queen Victoria in Prince Charles' eyes.

[@montesalps]

Thank you; I really enjoyed this. I watch the movie Young Victoria (?) periodically. That movie is to me, a believable depiction of the life and times and attitudes of and surrounding a young girl destined to be queen. Albert was her heart and her strength. Bringing life to the portraits was brilliant.

[@yyannucruzaguayo8466]

I love this channel, but question, why do you add makeup? mascara? lip-gloss?

[@suzannecabral7861]

Very well done. Really shows a natural progression through the years. Only criticism I would make is that the re-imagined images seem to show her slightly younger than the original portraits.

[@Stand663]

She also spoke Latin, French and Urdu

[@clementlee2121]

Queen Victoria would have cried had she saw the one of Prince Albert from 1861 and the way he move would have probably shocked Queen Victoria.

[@kellydesilva6733]

I dont think these virtual portraits are needed. We have actual photographs of the two of them. These tried to make her look more attractive than she was. In my opinion she was quite a homely woman. These pics are idealized. And not true to her exact image.

[@marygrace9117]

love,love the music. where is it from?

[@mariaams]

thank you for your amazing work. i love history and ive always wondered what these people would actually look like!

[@Bookmann117]

Hello Panagiotis, another incredible video. I think History Textbooks should use your images to depict historical figures, especially the ancient and medieval ones. I do have one question/request. Have you considered doing figures from Sub-Saharan African history like Mansa Musa, for example?

[@lauraju7217]

Estaría interesante uno sobre sus hijos 💜

[@omgfish8146]

arent there photographs of them?

[@panagiotisconstantinou]

Not when they were young as photography was invented in 1826 and even later the photos were of bad quality.

[@Dryhten1801]

Why not just use photographs. There is one from when she was 21.

[@lhbrownstein]

If you want to see what Queen Victoria looked like all you have to do is look at Princess Beatrice, daughter of Andrew, the Duke of York.

[@user-jc5db6yx1n]

Sir, your work is very excellent & fabulous. Please make a video on real faces of Khoshrow Anushirawan which was never made by anyone.

[@wplains]

Who is that?

[@marymary5494]

Is it intentional to make these images appear better looking than the actual historical portraits?

[@panagiotisconstantinou]

Portraits are actually painted to be better looking than usual.

[@anakostelac2192]

Could you do next on byzantine emperor Leo I the Thracian :)?

[@katsnow9256]

Prince Albert looked so old looking at the age of 39 or 40! I read that his health was never very good even from when he was a child!
