EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Bust of Cleopatra" by Giacomo Filippo Parodi, a renowned Italian sculptor from the 17th century. Crafted with creamy-white marble and carved in the round, this masterpiece stands on a circular verde antico socle, adding to its elegance and allure. The bust itself measures 78.75 cm in height, while the socle is 12 cm tall. It is currently housed at the prestigious Fitzwilliam Museum, located within the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. Parodi's attention to detail is evident in every curve and contour of Cleopatra's face. The sculpture beautifully captures her regal beauty and enigmatic charm that has fascinated generations throughout history. With its baroque style and Venetian influences, this artwork exemplifies Parodi's mastery as an artist during Italy's Seicento period. The use of white marble further enhances Cleopatra's ethereal presence. The intricate carving reveals delicate bas reliefs that adorn her decolletage while showcasing her iconic Egyptian hairstyle. The profile view highlights Cleopatra's strong features and adds depth to her character. This stunning piece serves as a testament to Parodi's talent for capturing not only physical likeness but also conveying emotion through his sculptures. It invites viewers to delve into ancient history while appreciating artistry at its finest.
