NEFERTITI.
Arguably, to those who are not very involved in the study of ancient Egypt, Queen Nefertiti is perhaps better known than her husband, the heretic king Amentoph.. .It is said that even in the ancient world, her beauty was famous.King Ay praises her for "joining with her beauty in propitiating the Aten with her sweet voice and her fair hands holding the sistrums".Nefertiti is perhaps best remembered for the painted limestone bust depicting her.
Sometimes known as the Berlin bust, it was found in the workshop of the famed sculptor Thutmose. This bust depicts her with full lips enhanced by a bold red. Although the crystal inlay is missing from her left eye, both eyelids and brows are outlined in black. Her graceful elongated neck balances the tall, flat-top crown which adorns her sleek head. The vibrant colors of the her necklace and crown contrast the yellow-brown of her smooth skin. While everything is sculpted to perfection, the one flaw of the piece is a broken left ear. Because this remarkable sculpture is still in existence, it is no wonder why Nefertiti remains 'The Most Beautiful Woman in the World.'DRAUPADI
There are few women that compete with the beauty of Draupadi; all those that met her adored her. Her beauty was so great that she delighted all of the human senses. her beauty: “The very sight of her was magnetic due to her irresistible beauty and fragrance”it was not only her beauty that won her praise: “Yudhisthira said that she was such that any man would desire and that she never committed any sin."Draupadi was not a dumb follower of her husbands. She had her own individuality. Though soft speaking she used harsh words to her husbands and others when necessary”This boldness is what sets her apart from other women in the epics. The Pandavas are accepting of this treatment possibly because they feel guilt for their abandonment of Draupadi at the court, or possibly because they truly trust in her decisions. The Pandavas often looked to Draupadi for guidance and approval. Draupadi was in many ways equal to her husbands and they desired her respect. The beautiful Draupadi is possessed also of quick wit and a clever tongue. Her ability at debate is demonstrated,her wit has saved her husbands from impending slavery
Draupadi’s fearlessness and uncompromising nature makes her of great importance in the history of mythological women and of women today.
NOOR JEHAN
Noor Jehan (1577-1645) was an empress who belonged to the great Mughal Dynasty. Nur Jahan was the favourite wife of the of the Mughal Emperor Jahangir. Her real name was Mehr-un-Nisaa.Jehangir first set eyes on MehrunNisaa at the palace meena bazaar, and was fixated by her stunning beauty, that he married her a few months later, in the same year. The couple's infatuation for each other was so immense that she became his favourite wife, and whom he affectionately named Nur Mahal ('Light of the Palace') after marriage, and then as Nur Jahan ('Light of the world') .
CLEOPATRA
For she was a woman of surpassing beauty, and at that time, when she was in the prime of her youth, she was most striking; she also possessed a most charming voice and a knowledge of how to make herself agreeable to every one. Being brilliant to look upon and to listen to, with the power to subjugate every one, even a love-sated man already past his prime, she thought that it would be in keeping with her rôle to meet Caesar, and she reposed in her beauty all her claims to the throne.Cleopatra was the last pharaoh of Egypt. She was 17 or 18 when she became the queen of Egypt. Cleopatra was far from beautiful, despite her glamorous image today. On ancient coins she is depicted with a long hooked nose and masculine features. But, she was clearly a very seductive woman, and was sure in her unbelievable beauty, which revealed by tempting musical voice and exuded charisma and also highly intelligent. She struck all men by her amazing makeup and captivated the hearts of millions.

You are stupid. How can you say plastic surgery can make somebody beautiful? It just correct some flaws. Also how do you know how these women looked? Just because it is written in some old papers?
ReplyDeleteYou are a shitty piece of crap
Lica Liviu, your post above is most degrading. What qualifies you to judge anyone? All we sow, we will reap. Where does that leave you?
ReplyDeleteI've read books on Cleopatra, which were written by historians who did a great deal of research & Cleopatra wasn't ugly as u suggest - she actually had quite strong features, (yes a large nose & a powerful forehead) which would probably be considered masculine today ... That doesn't mean she believed she was beautiful, despite being ugly. What it means is that we human beings change our minds frequently about what we consider to be beautiful .. Back in Cleopatra's time, a great beauty was someone who appeared strong & powerful, which she obviously needed to be as Pharoah. In the time of Queen Elizabeth I, very pale skin & understated, thin lips on slim, demure women became accepted as beautiful, whereas in her father's reign, the more full-figured buxom woman was generally expected to show off her beauty & her cleavage to be seen as beautiful .. Look at what what considered beautiful in Victorian times, long hair, neck to floor fabric with no bare skin & tight corsets & absolutely no trace of make-up unless u were a prostitute - Compared to Edwardian times with short hair, bare arms, flimsy fabrics & even trousers on women & make-up on rich women .. Then onto how wartimes affected what was accepted as beautiful ... there's no fabric or make-up available, so fitted, understated styles become necessary & are then considered beautiful. After the war, fabrics are back & rationing stops & women were wearing full dresses again & lots of make-up - It's whatever becomes the expected norm that is considered beautiful at the time, that's all.
