It would make sense with her being the virgin queen and stuff.
Queen Elizabeth I is usually a red head or milky brunette. I don't think it's Mary I either, kinda looks like Mary Queen of Scots.

I will find out who she is!!

Google images and wiki failed me, I've tried all possible combinations, queen paintings, queen with collar paintings, english paintings, monarchs paintings, countess paintings, tudors paintings, etc, still haven't found the painting :p

99.9% sure she isn't an English Queen or Queen Consort, I'd definitely recognise her.

Then again, this could have been shot in England, in which case she could be some aristocratic family's daughter, so unless they were really prominent we'll never know. Old estates are full of portraits.

I doubt it's anyone *that* important, otherwise it'd be in a gallery or something.

Haha, I just now saw this.
I first saw it on Tumblr and thought it was fanmade, but then I checked here, and it's real?!
Wow, she looks stunning! I really, really, really love this photo. The dress, the ladder, the background, everything. It's gorgeous!

I'm 99.9% sure I've seen her picture somewhere, and I'm also sure that I would recognize her, I agree, her hair is different (Elizabeth I) but she looks a bit like her. I need to find out! *curious*

I think it's quite a step in the right direction for Ayu.
I would love to see her have another big hit, and this song
could very well do it.
And I agree with the comments that say it's better in full.

Judging by her dress, she's 17th century. So you guys can search for 17th century portraits, narrow it down by that. Also, she does look like royality....perhaps an austrian or dutch princess or something? I've never seen this particular portrait before I think.

Aah, I just did another search, looks like some countries had that collar thing going on, even during the early 16th century. Damnit, this is like detective work!

It's such a beautiful cover. I love everything about it.

I hate her cute voice with a passion! ;_;
Like the one she's using in the CM saying mu-mo, horrible.
my friend (ayu's listener too) said exactly the same. ;x

This cover is gorgeous, the best cover in a very long time for a single...too bad it will not be a physical release, I would love to own this cover.

The cover's honestly something I'd expect from a magazine featuring ayu or something...but it's still incredibly gorgeous nonetheless.

Hopefully this also means the album cover will be just as good, if not better ^.^.

me too. i'm sure that i've seen that picture somewhere and that it is relatively famous, but i just can't place it. then again, there are SO many pictures that look similar that maybe i'm just confused.
