These 3 images are by Miles Aldridge on a shoot named 'Immacule Numero' and were shot in 2007.
Its no secret that these images carry extremely strong connotations to the virgin Mary, who happens to be the epitome of the ultimate woman to none only than queen Elizabeth the 1st herself. These images show strong connections to the queen in her golden era with pale skin and flushed cheeks alongside thin almost none existent cheeks and rouge lips in 2 out of the 3 images. A make-up look that is known to be the Elizabethan woman's go to makeup look and the ultimate goal.
These images also remind me of Frida Kahlo the famous Mexican woman whose known for the many self portraits there are of her.

These two images are both the epitome of new age elizabethan. Within both these makeup looks you can see strong connections to the elizabethan era.

This image has used the influence of a rouge lip, thin brows and pale complexion from the classic elizabethan style, it has then been brought into the modern age by firstly adding slightly more colour to the face by contouring slightly beneath the cheekbones. This image has then further been brought forward by creating a darker eye using browns, with a darker brown within the crease of the eye to create a darker look. As well as this they have also added extreme lashes to add drama, however the outer corners of the lashes have been coloured red, influenced by the rouge love the elizabethans had, by doing this it brings the look back together and homes in back in to the overall goal of a modern elizabethan.

This 2nd image shows an extremely whited out complexion with the classic contrasting lip, however for a contemporary more modern twist rather than a rouge coloured lip this image uses a black lip to bring it into the modern world, as well as ridding of the brows to extend the forehead and achieve that classic elizabethan desire of the large forehead.
