This from when King George III first married Sophia Charlotte of Mecklenberg-Strelitz, a black Portuguese Moor.
An older aged Queen Charlotte.
Many portraits of Charlotte are done with lighter skin.
Queen Charlotte's granddaughter Queen Victoria.

Wow, I didn't know that! Interesting.
Pinging miss marmelstein... I believe you are an Anglophile?
And that Negroid painting is NOT what a Portuguese "BLACKAMOOR" would have looked like!
Re Shakespeare and "OTHELLO"...Yes, Othello was a "Blackamoor"; however, that term refers to people from Northern Africa; dark skinned but NOT Negroids!
