Elizabeth I (7 September 1533 – 24 March 1603) was the Queen regnant of England and Ireland, reigning from 17 November 1558 until her death. She was the daughter of Henry VIII by his second wife Anne Boleyn and was the half-sister of Mary I.
She succeeded Mary I in 1558 after she was assassinated by the Assassins. At some point, she came into the possession of an Apple of Eden, which she kept hidden as the globus cruciger.[1]
However, the mathematician and consultant of Elizabeth, John Dee, knew of the Apple and its powers. After Elizabeth's death in 1603, Dee sent a painting of Elizabeth wielding the artifact during the Judgment of Paris to the stepdaughter of his former colleague Edward Kelley, Elizabeth Jane Weston, as a wedding present.[2]
