Twice a Queen

Description

A black and white sketch of Eleanor of Aquitaine (1122-1204) colorized and edited by me. 

Eleanor is my second favorite medieval woman, other than Joan of Arc. She was a duchess of Aquitaine who became Queen of France at age 15. Later, she married Henry II of England. Fun facts about Eleanor: She lived to be 82 (wow), she could read and write, and she had 10 children. Therefore, she was a truly remarkable woman for her time. :)
