Black History : SURINAME BLUE BLOOD IS BLACK BLOOD MUSEUM AT THE HAGUE

This is not a polaroid instamatic photo, its a painting loaded with symbolism. A painter need not have a person, a Moor in front of him to create a portrait like this. Her face might be derived from a sketch, and the body, dress, and back ground is created in a studio. The face might be idealized to make a person 'beautiful' and regal.

The Moor is not a servant, nor a person, but a symbol of her blue blood. He hands her pearls which mean purity, and signal her pure royal and noble blood. The Stuarts were very black of complexion. Her brother Charles II Stuart was called The Black Boy, and described as A tall black man. She married stadhouder William II of Orange, and became the mother of King William III of Orange of Britain.

Charles II Stuart, her brother who was called The Black Boy and described as a tall black man. Now, you all know black boys have black momma's and daddies too. It's clear that his nickname regarded his complexion, as he might be darker then others, who were dark too. This print was made after a painted portrait that is hidden or destroyed or over painted with pink and beige.

King Louis XIV of France, their cousin. He must have been very black as his mummy was viewed in the 18th century and declared: black as ink. The portrait show a very dark skinned man.

I'm trying do determine of this is Charles V Habsburg. We know he was very prognastic, although they want to put a lying spin on it, to say it was a sickness. His mummy seemed very black of colour and with massive prognatism.
The miniature of Dorothea of Denmark shows his niece, and she definetely looks Black. His sisters and his son Philip II show the same prognatism, which might have come from grandpa Ferdinand of Aragon. The ones with classical African looks were regarded as pure of noble blood, not tainted with other blood.
