    Portrait of Queen Elizabeth 1 A1: Queen Elizabeth 1 stands proud on the globe like she has conquered the world. On the background there is sunshine on her right hand, but darkness and lightning on her left. Each side has what appears to be descriptive words for each side, however, I am unable to make out or understand the meaning.

A2: The contrast between the dark side of her left and the bright sunshine side on her right is interesting. When the artist painted this portrait, what was the reason or meaning this was to represent? Why is the dark on her left side and the brightness on her right. Is there some mystical meaning behind this where she is taking the world out of darkness and into the light? And what is that on her back? Is it a heart or supposed to represent angels wings? Does this have any reference to the background?…
