EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Suicide of Cleopatra" by Tancredi Scarpelli takes us back to ancient Egypt, where the tragic tale of the legendary queen unfolds. The image depicts a pivotal moment in history as Cleopatra, adorned in regal attire, succumbs to her fate. With an air of melancholy surrounding her, she holds a serpent - the infamous asp - which will bring about her demise. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; from the intricate patterns on Cleopatra's gown to the delicate scales of the snake. The composition exudes both beauty and sorrow, capturing the essence of this historical event. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking artwork, we are reminded of Cleopatra's strength and determination even in her darkest hour.

It invites us to delve into ancient Egyptian history while reflecting on themes such as power, love, and ultimately mortality. Whether displayed in a museum or adorning one's personal collection, this print is sure to spark conversations about history, mythology, and human nature itself.
