A strong-willed monarch who led 16th-century England to a period of great strength and enormous prosperity, Elizabeth I is featured in this meticulously detailed paper doll collection that also depicts two of her admirers — Sir Walter Raleigh and Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex. The Queen's seven magnificent gowns of silk, satin, and brocade are accented with pleated ruffs, pearls, and polished gemstones.
