corinnadelconte's third pick...
AnneBoleyn..'s suite
This is a theme based suite and doll. Anne Boleyn was Queen of England from 1533 to 1536 as the second wife of King Henry VIII and Marquess of Pembroke in her own right. Henry's marriage to Anne, and her subsequent execution, made her a key figure in the political and religious upheaval that was the start of the English Reformation.
This suite and doll are very true to the era that she is representing. At first glance it would not appear that this suite is very complicated, but if you look closely you will see just how much work she has put into this scene. They say that the beauty of art is making the impossible look easy. This is beautiful.
