Description: Welcome to this digital exhibition, a culmination of a year of research on early modern England, the Hardwick Portrait (c. 1590-99) of Queen Elizabeth I and its owner Bess of Hardwick, and the politically advantageous symbolism of the animals and flowers depicted in the work. The project helped to satisfy the requirements of a Master of Arts degree in Art History at American University in Washington, D.C., which was awarded to me in May of 2019. Section one of the exhibition closely anlyzes the Hardwick Portrait and related works to reveal strategies by which the image aggrandized Elizabeth to the advantage of Bess of Hardwick. Section two analyzes selected representations of Elizabeth through the lens of gender, to reveal how the portraits helped to shape and strengthen the queen's political authority: the Hardwick Portrait is one such work. Section three investigates the animals and flowers that bedeck Elizabeth's gown in the portrait to reveal their emblematic function in shaping the image of the Queen as an ideal ruler. Reading the sections of the exhibition in order, by clicking "next" at the bottom of each screen, is recommended. The site can also be navigated by clicking the menu symbol at the upper right. A bar with section titles will appear on the left; click the texts for access. Clicking on the thumbnails throughout the site will call up larger images in most cases.
