It's fair to say that Colin Firth's rendition of Mr Darcy in Pride and tekashi69 sex videoPrejudicecaptured the hearts of countless Jane Austen fans.But a group of UK academics have discovered that Austen's fictional heartthrob Mr Fitzwilliam Darcy didn't look at all like the actors -- Colin Firth and Matthew MacFadyen -- who've played him.
SEE ALSO: Thirsty Mr. Darcy fans will soon be blessed with seeing THAT shirt up closeThe research -- led by Professor John Sutherland from University College London and Professor Amanda Vickery from Queen Mary University of London -- involved a month-long study to gain a historically accurate idea of what Darcy would have looked like. The academics looked into Austen's personal life and relationships to draw conclusions about who might have been the inspiration for Mr Darcy. They also looked into the descriptions and illustrations of the character and the socio-economic and cultural factors that would contribute to Darcy's background, appearance and lifestyle.

Not quite the brooding, chiselled chap portrayed on-screen by modern-day actors. And, to help you get a sense of what Darcy would have looked like, the researchers commissioned a portrait of him.

His face would have been long and oval-shaped with a small mouth -- common features among gentlemen of the era. His skin would have been pink and white; a sign of wealth and privilege. His build would have been slender, with a "modest chest", but with "large quads, thighs and calves". According to the research, strong legs were an attractive and important feature to females of the time, with "well-modelled thighs a sign of virility, a good fencer and horseman".
Unlike Colin Firth and Matthew MacFadyen -- who are both over 6ft tall -- the real Darcy would have only been 5ft 11 inches.
