7th September 1533 | Anne Boleyn gives birth to Elizabeth

At 3 O’clock in the afternoon, on this day in 1533, Anne Boleyn gave birth to Princess Elizabeth at Greenwich. The jousts that Henry VIII had planned to commemorate the birth of his son were cancelled as the birth of princesses did not warrant a large public celebration, but a herald immediately proclaimed this first of Henry’s legitimate children, while the choristers of the Chapel Royal sang the Te Deum. The circular letters prepared before the birth by the royal clerks, announcing the deliverance and bringing forth of a Prince were amended to read Princes. 

Elizabeth was not the male heir that Henry and Anne had hoped for, but the consolation was that she was healthy and had a full head of Tudor red hair. So the royal couple put on a brave face, as they had no reason to fear that sons would not follow. It is reported that when Henry visited his wife after the birth and Anne expressed disappointment at the sex of their child, Henry responded by saying that they were both still young and by God’s grace, boys will follow. At the time, apart from upset at the baby’s sex, many people were simply relieved that the Queen had not only had a fairly easy delivery, but that she had lived through it at all.

Given how close Elizabeth had been born to one of the great festivals of the Virgin, it would have been expected for the baby princess to receive the baptismal name of Mary. However, the King already had a daughter with that name, from his first marriage. With that union’s annulment, Mary Tudor had lost the title of princess, and there were rumours in the Spanish Embassy that the new Queen planned to christen her daughter Mary, anyway, in the hope that the new Princess Mary would utterly eclipse the old one in the public’s mind. As with so many of the Spanish-started rumours about Anne Boleyn, this story was groundless, for there doesn’t seem to have been any hesitation on either the King or the Queen’s part in naming their new daughter, Elizabeth. It was the most logical name to go for: both the King and the Queen had mothers with that name. And so it was probably as a mutual maternal tribute that Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn selected the name for the baby that was destined to be their only child together and thus christened the girl who would arguably become the single most famous woman in her country’s history.

Romulus 1x04, ‘’Populos’’

How to make an entrance, as shown by a Rib Cage Guy. 

God I love this show.

Romulus 1x03 & 1x04. Cinematography by Vladan Radovic and Giuseppe Maio

Wide shots are simply spectacular. A feast for eyes ❤️

Romulus 1x02 & 1x03

Some beautiful shots of the softest boi in Italian peninsula, looking at Yemos.

I love all the main trio of characters, but Wiros might be my favourite 🧡 Even despite the theft in ep.2!

(Also, I can’t believe how gorgeous Francesco di Napoli is. Lord have mercy)

Romulus 1x03  Ilia returning to the cave of Mars 🔥

She’s such an absolute badass. I’m glad they didn’t gloss over her grief, and made it change her profoundly. Her whole future life crumbled and she’s got nothing to lose. I hope she’ll soon find out what her daddy did though. I hate that slimy bastard

Romulus 1x01 Trying to escape the Fate. 😥 Requested by @you--can--rest--now

(Whew, this was a difficult one! The scene is very long, over 2.5 minutes. I had to cut out some of the dialogue, and the gifs are veeery long. Hope it’s still watchable ;) I hope you like it! 💕 )

Romulus s01e06 Because you are here. 😭😭😭

With special dedication to @brandbilen​ 💝

Bonus - an actual footage of me during this scene:

Some new gorgeous places and breathtaking shots from new episodes. I am in awe. ✨ Cinematography in Romulus makes this ancient world so vivid, tangible and real! ❤️

Romulus 1x06 Fishing lesson

❤️ Five minutes of precious peace when nobody is trying to murder them or smear some blood/dirt on their pretty faces.
