ANTONY & CLEOPATRA. Meeting on the River Cygnus - A Glimpse into Ancient Royalty
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the 1st century BC, immersing us in a momentous meeting between two legendary figures - Antony and Cleopatra. The engraving, created in 1887 by Lawrence Alma-Tadema after his own painting, beautifully captures this iconic encounter. Set on the majestic River Cygnus, we witness the convergence of cultures as Antony, a Macedonian man of great power and influence from Rome's empire, meets with Cleopatra VII, Queen of Egypt from the Ptolemaic dynasty. The scene is richly detailed; their boat glides gracefully through calm waters adorned with lush vegetation. Cleopatra exudes regal elegance as she sits upon her throne-like seat draped in luxurious fur while wearing an exquisite leopard-skin garment symbolizing her North African heritage. Her loyal servant stands attentively nearby, ready to fulfill her every command. Antony appears captivated by Cleopatra's beauty and intellect as he gazes at her intently. This historic rendezvous holds immense significance for both empires involved – it marks not only a political alliance but also a passionate love affair that would shape history. Lawrence Alma-Tadema masterfully brings this ancient world to life through his meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured by Granger Art
