EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving of Cleopatra, the iconic queen of ancient Egypt. Created by the talented artist Alma-Tadema in 1887, this artwork beautifully captures the regal and ceremonial essence of Cleopatra's reign. The image depicts Cleopatra gracefully seated on a majestic boat, surrounded by a lavish entourage. The attention to detail is remarkable, as every aspect - from the intricate patterns on her gown to the ornate decorations adorning the vessel - exudes opulence and grandeur. Transportation plays a significant role in this scene, with various boats and a tugboat seen in the background. These vessels symbolize both practical means of transport and elements of royal luxury that were synonymous with Cleopatra's rule. It is evident that this engraving was created for publication purposes, perhaps intended for The Illustrated London News or similar publications at that time. The composition perfectly captures Cleopatra's allure and power while offering viewers a glimpse into ancient Egyptian culture. As we admire this stunning piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness an extravagant party fit for royalty. Whether you are fascinated by history or simply appreciate fine artistry, this print is sure to captivate your imagination and evoke admiration for one of history's most legendary figures – Queen Cleopatra herself.
