This print showcases an engraving of "Cleopatra" by H Rider Haggard, brought to life by the talented artist Richard Caton Woodville II. The image captures a pivotal moment in ancient Egypt's history, as Cleopatra, portrayed with remarkable detail and emotion, stands before us. Her face is flushed and her nostrils flare with intensity, reflecting the rush of adrenaline coursing through her veins. Her torn garments cling to her body, evidence of a mighty struggle she has endured. With panting breaths and blood-stained mouth, Cleopatra exudes both vulnerability and strength. In this mesmerizing scene from literary illustrations published in The Illustrated London News on February 9th, 1889; we witness Cleopatra's unwavering determination amidst chaos. Her gaze pierces through the viewer's soul as she surveys the aftermath of battle. The Nubian backdrop adds depth to this portrayal of ancient Egypt's queen - a reminder that power knows no boundaries. As we admire this exquisite print from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, we are transported back in time to witness Cleopatra's indomitable spirit firsthand. Let your imagination roam as you delve into the world created by H Rider Haggard and skillfully brought to life by Woodville’s masterful engraving technique.
