Da li ste se ikad pitali kako Julije Cezar i Kleopatra zaista izgledaju? Jedna umetnica to zna

Umetnička dela nemaju samo estetsku vrednost, već pružaju vredan podatak o tome kako su istorijske ličnosti izgledale. No, pitanje kako su one zaista izgledale oduvek je kopkao potomke. Jedna umetnica rešila je da nađe odgovor.

- Otakako sam bila dete fascinirale su me arheologija i istorija. Mislim da ljudi vide prošlost kao seriju događaja, nešto kao film koji ne možemo da osetimo i dotaknemo. Verujem da ono što nas približava prošlosti zapravo u nama budi ljudskost - tela u Pompeju, savršeno mumificirani leševi Inka, lične stvari onih koji su davno, davno otišli sa zemlje - kaže Beka Saladin, koja na osnovu portreta i skulptura prošlost pretvara u sadašnjost.

Julius Caesar. This was a fun one that took some time and I’ve been really excited to share. I think he has a very regal look about him - what do you guys think?A post shared by @ royalty_now_ on Sep 17, 2019 at 8:24am PDT

Kako kaže, uvek je mislila da bi bilo neverovatno kada bismo istorijske događaje i ličnosti mogli da vidimo izbliza, baš onakve kakvi su bili.

I hope nobody here will get tired of my Anne Boleyn posts...she is my favorite historical figure so you may get quite a few :) Many people asked me last time I posted Anne if I really thought her features (specifically her lips) were really that delicate - and I don’t think they were. Tudor portraiture often de-emphasized these features, so I modified my finished version to reflect what I think is probably her more likely appearance. Since it’s the holiday season, one of my favorite ghost stories is the story of Anne appearing underneath the great oak tree at Hever Castle, her childhood home, every Christmas day. Do you all have a favorite historic ghost story? Hope you all have a great holiday season! 🎄🎄 .

- Osnovala sam Royaly Now u februaru prošle godine, prosto jer sam htela da vidim neke svoje omiljene istorijske figure, poput Ane Bolen, kao moderne ličnosti. Pitala sam se da li bi ona mogla da oživi sa tih svojih bledih, ravnih portreta - dodaje ona.

A Ana nije jedina koja je iz 16. veka oživela u 21.

This bust of Nefertiti is famous for its grace and beauty. Nefertiti lived from approximately 1370 - 1330 BC. She was an Egyptian queen and the wife of Akhenaten, an Egyptian Pharaoh. Akhenaten is famous for his attempt to transition Egypt into a monotheistic society (worshipping only the sun god, Aten), instead of a polytheistic one. I've been wanting to complete this comparison of Nefertiti for some time, as I've always been drawn to the beauty of this bust, which is believed to have been sculpted during her lifetime. This one was difficult and took some time, mostly because it's 50% digital reconstruction, considering the bust doesn't have eyes and has some pieces flaking off or missing. Hope you all enjoy - this has been one of my favorites. . . . #EgyptianHistory #QueenNefertiti #Nefertiti #Pharaohs #Akhenaten #KingTut #PhotoshoppedHistory #RoyaltyNow #RoyalHistory #EgyptianRulers #RulersofHistory #King #Queen #AncientHistory #TheNile #HistoryofEgypt #1300BC #egypt #egyptian #egyptianpharaohs #egyptiangoddess #egyptianmuseumA post shared by @ royalty_now_ on May 22, 2019 at 12:43pm PDT

- Ova bista Nefertiti (za koju verujem da je izvajana za njenog života) postala je simbol elegancije i lepote. Nefertiti je živela oko 1370. do 1330. godine pre nove ere. Bila je egipatska kraljica i supruga faraona Ehnatona, poznatog po tome što je u Egiptu za zvaničnu religiju proglasio veru u jednog boga.

I wasn’t aware when I started this one that Alexander the Great would look like a modern day member Harvard Crew team, yet here we are 😂 I did some research on his looks and it is recorded that he had curly golden hair and heterochromia (one eye blue and one eye brown or a combo of both), so he was definitely a striking figure.A post shared by @ royalty_now_ on Oct 2, 2019 at 11:59am PDT

- Čitala sam o tome kako je Aleksandar veliki izgledao. Imao je plavu kovrždavu kosu i heterohromiju (jedno oko mu je bilo plavo, drugo braon ili kombinacija te dve boje), tako da je definitivno bio upečatljiva ličnost.

Agrippina the Younger is someone I only recently learned more about, but she had a crazy life. She was the sister to Emperor Caligula, and the mother to Emperor Nero. I highly recommend giving her a search if you’re interested in that era of roman history! I couldn’t find any contemporary descriptions of her looks, so I based her coloring off of Caligula’s, who did have his looks described (and who was a former Royalty Now subject!). Swipe right ➡️ do you guys see any resemblance? I see it in the eyebrows and nose. . .

- Agripina je imala lud život. Bila je sestra rimskog cara Kaligule, a majka Nerona. Nisam mogla da nađem precizne opise, pa sam se vodila izgledom Nerona.

Louis XV is lesser known than his predecessor the Sun King and his heir, Louis XVI, but he was the second-longest reigning monarch in French history. I have always known him by his famous mistresses, Madame De Pompadour (a former Royalty Now subject, swipe ➡️➡️ to see her) and Madame du Barry. I’ll do Madame du Barry soon and complete the set!A post shared by @ royalty_now_ on Dec 18, 2019 at 12:31pm PST

- Luj XV manje je poznat i od svog prethodnika (Kralja Sunca), i od svog naslednika (Luja XVI koji je giljotiniran zajedno sa svojom ženom Marijom Antoanetom). Ipak, njegova vladavina bila je druga najduža u francuskoj istoriji. Uvek sam ga znala najbolje po njegovoj ljubavnici, madam Pompadur.

I’ve been resisting doing Cleopatra for some time, simply because there aren’t many reliable depictions of her, and most descriptions of her by historians were made after her death. However, I’ve gotten so many requests for her, I wanted to give you all what you’ve been asking for 🥰 . . The closest thing we have are Roman busts from the first century BCE, around the time that Cleopatra would have been visiting Rome. I chose to base my recreation off of the Berlin Bust of Cleopatra, which was thought to have been created around 46-44 BCE. I chose this bust because most of the depictions of her include common features - a strong nose, full lips, and small chin. It’s also hard to tell what her skin & hair colors were - most descriptions describe her as dark haired and “honey-skinned”, but some even say she was a redhead. Consider this my “Artist’s Rendition” of a way that she could have possibly looked. Bottom line, Cleopatra was an amazing woman. She was intelligent, witty, spoke several languages, and was incredibly skilled in diplomacy. I really enjoyed learning more about her during research for this recreation! . .

- Najviše opisa Kleopatre napisano je nakon njene smrti, a većina nije pozdana. Bazirala sam svoj rad na bisti koja se nalazi u Berlinu, jer uključuje opise koji se najčešće pojavljuju - istaknut nos, pune usne i malu bradu.
