    Princess Charlotte, the only legitimate grandchild of George III, was very popular and her death was quite a blow to the country anticipating a new type of monarch (ie not crazy or unpopular). She died after childbirth, earlier delivering a stillborn male. A tale for another time. But, roses are often associated with her ("Rose of the Fair State" in the exerge), and you can see these in her hair.

    Some might be branches with nuts or something.
    These look mostly like flowers.

    Moving image of Una & the lion grieving, her trident is replaced by a liberty pole w/ hat.
    I also noticed the broken pillar symbolism & the sun behind clouds.
    Very well done.

    Her death was quite the blow as she was quite popular. And, it set off a succession crisis. Ultimately her older uncle was able to marry and Victoria was born and became Queen.

    Queen Victoria's mother was thought to have a spontaneous mutation for hemophilia, and through Victoria's daughters hemophilia afflicted the ruling houses of Russia, Prussia, and Spain.

    If Charlotte had lived to produce another child (or at least had the succession decided differently) European history could have gone quite differently.

    And to stay on topic, more Japanese flowers.

    Dogs seem like a good choice.

    My collection runs towards mythological beasts and the mother/baby/child/ob-gyn themes. One is too broad, the other too narrow.

    Oh, and nekkid people are always popular, but that might go off the deep end.

    So, dogs. (Lions have been done, but are also very popular)
