I am now downloading this doc.. If you cant't find it on line, email it to me and I will post it to you. I understand everyone's desperation. I have seen the facial reconstruction and, well, we knew he had strong features. However, the more I look at it, it is a NICE face.

"Will you do something for me?" he asked.
"Of course. Anything I can do."
"Will you take that photograph to the window and look at it in a good light as long as it takes to count a pulse?"
"Yes, of course, if you want me to. But why?"
"Never mind why. You just do it to please me. I'll time you."
She took up the portrait and moved into the light of the window.
He watched the second-hand of his watch.
He gave her forty-five seconds and then said: "Well?" And as there was no immediate answer he said again: "Well?"
"Funny," she said. "When you look at it for a little it's really quite a nice face, isn't it?"

Thank you, Mcjohn. I too was thinking of Tey and the inspiration she derived
from the NPG portrait of Richard. Thank you for reproducing the wonderful
ending of *The Daughter of Time* which surely has been inspirational for
many of us (although we do realize it's a novel, LOL!)

Just saw the reconstruction! I have to agree with someone who thinks the eyes and hair are waaaaay too dark; but it's a nice reconstruction although I do believe it lacks a bit of character. Interestingly, it is a very young face but where are the lines of care that are shown in all the portraits? I want his wrinkles back, lol! Maire.

On looking at it again I think it's the eyebrows which are to me much too thick for an otherwise quite sensitive face. The portraits, Tudor wrinkles or not, show a sensitive face and that would have been in keeping with his rather feminine build. Still like it though, and when you look at the portraits of the royals down the ages he doesn't have many rivals.

The face is rounder in this reconstruction! But since he was under strain for the last few years of his life, his face would have looked thinner when they painted the picture?
It is the approximation though, or is it the " true" face? The eyebrows are too bushy! How did they figure out?!
Someone on Facebook said he looks like Tarrantino with makeup on:(
Maybe the sideway glance has something to do with looking sly? I would rather he looked directly at the world! But he all have our own image of Richard and would never reconcile fully with what he might have really looked like......

What it does seem to confirm though is that the other royal portraits of the time (E4, EW, even H6) are also likely to be very close to how they looked - EW in particular must have been some beauty. The UK news images just released show him looking forward. In my own head I have him with lighter eyes, slightly lighter hair and a slightly thinner face. Still compared with H7 and H8!!!!! A good day yesterday.

The face is rounder in this reconstruction! But since he was under strain for the last few years of his life, his face would have looked thinner when they painted the picture?
It is the approximation though, or is it the " true" face? The eyebrows are too bushy! How did they figure out?!
Someone on Facebook said he looks like Tarrantino with makeup on:(
Maybe the sideway glance has something to do with looking sly? I would rather he looked directly at the world! But he all have our own image of Richard and would never reconcile fully with what he might have really looked like......

I think one might well say that this is the image of Richard as he would have looked just before the death of Edward IV, when the world (or at least the North) was Richard's oyster, and he was living contentedly, master of all he surveyed, in Middleham, along with his beloved wife and dear son.

What it does seem to confirm though is that the other royal portraits of the time (E4, EW, even H6) are also likely to be very close to how they looked - EW in particular must have been some beauty. The UK news images just released show him looking forward. In my own head I have him with lighter eyes, slightly lighter hair and a slightly thinner face. Still compared with H7 and H8!!!!!

Wellll...pigments fade, so he may have had darker hair a? Or the artist may have taken liberties with the color to add the detail of the wave of his hair? Not so easy to do with a darker color? As for his eyes...blue, gray, blue-gray...mebbe they changed according to the color of cloth he was wearing?
As for the lines of care...I'm so not missing them. I'm thinking this is how he looks now -- how the part of him that didn't die and that lasts forever (his soul) looks. I absolutely love how approachable he appears.

Wellll...pigments fade, so he may have had darker hair a? Or the artist may
have taken liberties with the color to add the detail of the wave of his
hair? Not so easy to do with a darker color? As for his eyes...blue, gray,
blue-gray...mebbe they changed according to the color of cloth he was
wearing?
As for the lines of care...I'm so not missing them. I'm thinking this is how
he looks now -- how the part of him that didn't die and that lasts forever
(his soul) looks. I absolutely love how approachable he appears.

I do believe it lacks a bit of character. Interestingly, it is a very young
face but where are the lines of care that are shown in all the portraits? I
want his wrinkles back, lol! Maire.

Wednesday: what a sweet post! As if the King was restored to youth and beauty as the Duke of Gloucester - before any of the terrible consequences of his brother's reign began to affect him. You've made me rethink the wrinkles. Maire.
