From the tragic demise of Mark Antony to intriguing encounters with Octavian, this enigmatic queen's life was filled with triumphs and tribulations. Shakespeare immortalized their love affair in "Antony and Cleopatra, " Act 4, Scene 15 – a poignant depiction of the death that sealed their fates. Meanwhile, an unknown artist captured an imagined interview between Octavian and Cleopatra in 1890 – a glimpse into their complex relationship. Jan Muller's painting from circa 1623 portrays Cleopatra herself – regal yet mysterious. A tetradrachm coin issued by Mark Antony serves as a testament to their alliance during turbulent times. The tale takes on another twist when Clodius disguises himself as a woman in Flanders' rendition of "The Story of Caesar and Cleopatra" from around 1680, and is here that we witness moments like "Cleopatra Enjoys Herself at Sea" or her being asked to pay tribute to Rome. Caesar's presence cannot be ignored either; he throws himself into the sea in one scene while enjoying his time with Cleopatra in another. Their escapades are further depicted through Brussels' interpretation of "The Battle of Actium.
