Queen Elizabeth in Coronation Robes
Artist: Old Master
Genre: Portrait
Date: circa 1600

Description
Queen Elizabeth I of England in her coronation robes, patterned with Tudor roses and trimmed with ermine. She wears her hair loose, as traditional for the coronation of a queen, perhaps also as a symbol of virginity. The painting, by an unknown artist, dates to the first decade of the seventeenth century (NPG gives c.1600) and is based on a lost original also by an unknown artist.

1973 Alpine A110 1600S
Price: 98,000 CR, Stock: C/550, Setup: C/500, Color: Factory Blue
Alpine's only offering to the Forza Horizon 5 autoshow is a classic rally racer, boasting a 1605cc inline 4 Renault engine pushing 138 horsepower into a body that weighs less than a ton. In game, this car is also nimble in all terrain types, but the limits of 1970s tech puts this car in C rank. However, for all of the game's roster of rally cars, this one boasts a particularly low price tag.

“A 16th c. Scottish Plaid was Found in a Bog–Now Becomes Oldest Historical Tartan Available to Wear Today”
A textile manufacturer in Scotland has recreated the oldest-known piece of Scottish tartan ever found, which was buried for centuries.
Discovered approximately forty years ago in a peat bog, the Glen Affric Tartan underwent testing organized by The Scottish Tartans Authority last year to confirm it was the oldest surviving piece of tartan, dating back to between 1500-1600 CE.
