"The Regal Twelve" - Alexia Sinclair's Fantastic Digital Portraits of Some of the Most Powerful Women in Western History

The Regal Twelve is a series of jaw-dropping portraits of some the most powerful and influential women in (mostly) European history. The portraits were created by the very talented and creative Australian digital artist Alexia Sinclair.

Among those women featured are Queen Elizabeth I of England who is depicted in all her regal glory. The guillotined Queen of France Marie Antoinette is showcased surrounded by all the pomp and circumstance and decadence of pre-revolutionary France and the tragic Queen Cleopatra of Egypt is displayed surrounded by snakes.
