Friday Art & History Feature - Fashion and Jewelry of Renaissance Italy and England

I love looking at the fashion and jewelry of epochs gone by. Today, I thought I'd share two of my favorite periods in history, fashion-wise: Renaissance Italy and Tudor England. I have especially enjoyed watching this fashion on two of the Showtime series - The Tudors and The Borgias.

Italian Renaissance



Portrait of Lucrezia Panciatrichi by Angelo Bronzino
Bella by Titian
Lady With A Unicorn by Raphael Sanzio. Thought to be a portrait of Julia Farnese, mistress of Rodrigo Borgia.
Joanne Whalley as Vannozza dei Cattanei on the Showtime the Borgias
Holliday Grainger as Lucrezia and Francois Arnaud as Cesare on the Showtime the Borgias

Tudor Era - England





Annabelle Wallis as Queen Jane on the Showtime Tudors
Anne Boleyn


Fashion of which periods of history and regions of the world do you enjoy looking at?
