Description

Finally! Oh, this one took me so long! I experimented with coloring techniques, but ended up with the one I normally use...

Giulia is probably my favorite character of The Borgia's television series. Partly because I adore her attitudes and partly because the actress, Lotte Verbeek, was born very close to my home town :D

The dress she's wearing is from the very first episode where Rodrigo Borgia/Pope Alexander VI is showing her around cardinal Orsini's palazo. You know what's ironic? Giulia's real husband (as in the real historical figure) is also from the Orsini family. I haven't found out (yet) if the murdered cardinal actually existed or if this is something the script writers thought would be funny.

I can't vouch for the historical accuracy. It looks pretty good and real, but so are pretty much all costumes in The Borgia's (especially compared to The Tudors). I would say this dress could be from around 1490-1500, but I'm not 100% sure.

Her face might remind you a bit of Belle, because I used a BatB coloring page for the pose. As for the background, I found out that TwistedBrush does have a function for it, so I played around a bit ^^;

So now I can go back to my Disney series. Up next will be either the Queen of Hearts or Bo Peep, haven't decided yet, so your opinions are most welcome :D
