Daughter of King Henry VIII & Anne Boleyn Spotted in Melbourne


Hi V ... The daughter of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn a.k.a Elizabeth 1 Queen of England has been spotted in Melbourne.  Could it be her?  Click on this link for a line up.  There is a resemblance.  Who could mistake that face?  Do you agree?  In addition to the resemblance, there were two other clues (1) the ruffled colar, typical of the Elizabethan era, and (2) the doorway edged with the Tudor Rose the heraldic emblem of England.  "But where was she spotted?" you ask.  Where else but at the Grand Old Dame of Spring Street a.k.a. The Windsor Hotel.  She stands on the wall of the Grand Dining Room captured in stained glass under an architrave of Tudor Roses issuing her Royal Decrees while her patrons enjoy high tea and the chocolate fountain. .. Cheers J.

  2. Great shot, Joe. Not a very flattering portrait, but one with warts and all...
