When Margaery Tyrell ed the ever convoluted world of Margaery was smart, cunning, and knew how to play the political game to her advantage - even if that meant marrying the insufferable and cruel Joffrey Baratheon. Unlike many other characters on the show, it wasn't easy to put her in a box and determine whether or not she was pure evil or a good person with high aspirations. Eventually, though, Margaery Tyrell grew strong, much like the words of her House indicated.
However, happy endings simply aren't a thing in the world of Westeros, and Margaery Tyrell met her untimely death at the hands of Cersei Lannister when she exploded the Vatican equivalent of Game of Thrones. So, in loving memory of a character that brought so much dimension to the show, let's contemplate ten incredible pieces of fan art we can't get enough of.
Gorgeous In Blue
The first piece included in this list came from the imagination and incredible talent of artist PolliPo. As fans of the books and the show will know, House Tyrell is often associated with flowers and all things nature.
In this stunning portrait of Margaery, we see the young Queen framed by a sea of roses and donning her famous blue dress that so beautifully matches her bright eyes. Natalie Dormer would be immensely proud of this one!
Seeing Right Through You
Margery Tyrell had an assortment of very specific facial expressions that brought the character to life, all thanks to the incredible acting skills actress Natalie Dormer brought to the table.
She could be intensely charming but also persuasive, and the latter shone through particularly when we saw the features that artist DavidDeb so masterfully portrayed in this take on the character.
Margaery Tyrell Meets Disney
Reimagining beloved television and movie characters as Disney princesses is a common practice amongst artists on the Internet. Beautiful, charming, and brave are all hallmarks of these timeless royals, and Margaery Tyrell sure fits the mold.
Artist Pomelyne seemed to agree when she put together this stunning piece, which portrays a more delicate and fantastical looking Margaery. She seems about ready to get her own Disney spin-off!
Spring Is Coming
Each House that made up the complex world of Game of Thrones had a very clear set of attributes that represented the aesthetic of the Starks, the Lannisters, the Bolts, and so on.
And if the Starks preferred thick furs and a monotone color palette, the Tyrells were often seen donning bright tones and nods to nature and flowers. This piece by VarshaVjayan does a wonderful job at conveying the essence of House Tyrell, and of Margaery in particular.
Margaery Giving Anime Vibes
While imagining Margaery Tyrell as a Disney princess is quite a fun exercise, we all must come to with the fact that an actual Disney adaptation of Game of Thrones would be pretty much impossible due to the brutal nature of the show.
But an anime adaptation, on the other hand, would be something to behold! And artist Claparo-Sans took a fantastic first step towards making this happen by presenting us with an anime-like version of Margaery.
Sweet & Innocence
Even though she was a politically-savvy player in the game of thrones, Margaery also had a sweet side to her personality. Audiences saw it through her relationship with Sansa and the way she thought about and cared for the common-folk.
Artist AdventureIsOutThere offers us a sweeter take on Margaery, choosing to portray her as a more innocent and sweet character, showcasing the side that was more vulnerable.
The Pride & Joy Of House Tyrell
Most people will automatically associate the character of Margaery Tyrell with actress Natalie Dormer, which is an inescapable part of adapting a series of books into movies or television.
But artist I-Am-A-Lady-Damn-It took a shot at interpreting George RR Martin's description of the character and came up with this inspiring and unique piece of art.
Margaery, But Make It Cubism
Who's to say that fan art needs to fit into a certain mold? Not all of the homages artists pay to their favorite characters have to consist in perfect replicas of the actors who play them.
Ansleris took this notion to a whole other level by presenting us with a unique portrait of Margaery that would make Picasso jealous. Introducing Margaery Tyrell, but make it cubism!
A Dream Of Spring
Margaery surrounded by flowers in a green color scheme? Plus a majestic peacock tying the whole picture together? It's the piece of fanart we didn't know we needed, and yet, artist thegryph made it happen.
Absolutely incredible, and a breath of fresh air when compared to the style and aesthetic that tends to follow Game of Thrones characters.
The Face That Launched A Thousand Memes
A list about a character played by actress Natalie Dormer simply couldn't be compiled without adding a piece of fan art that nods to Dormer's most famous facial expression.
Those familiar with the meme "Natalie Dormer smiles like she knows when the world will end" can appreciate this incredible piece by MkFlrs even more!
