Anne Boleyn

Another queen of England on the list is Anne Boleyn. She was the second wife of King Henry VIII. What happened to Anne during her husband’s reign was etched in history. It even made her a key figure in the political and religious upheaval that marked the beginning of the English Reformation.

In her painting, she looked like someone who could do anything she wanted – well, literally and figuratively. However, she had a sad story behind that beautiful face. In her modern image, she looked every inch like a Hollywood star who could have movie credits, doing film after film.
