EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from the 19th century depicts Queen Cleopatra VII of Egypt during the historic Battle of Actium in 31 B. C. The intricate details and skillful craftsmanship bring to life the grandeur and power of this iconic ruler. Queen Cleopatra, a member of the Ptolemaic dynasty, is shown standing on a majestic ship as she commands her navy with unwavering determination. Dressed in regal attire, she exudes confidence and grace amidst the chaos of warfare. The Battle of Actium was a pivotal moment in history, where Cleopatra's forces clashed with those led by Octavian (later known as Emperor Augustus). This clash marked not only a turning point for Egypt but also for the entire Roman Empire. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary event that shaped civilizations. The artist's attention to detail captures every aspect of maritime warfare - from towering ships adorned with flags to soldiers engaged in combat. Cleopatra's presence on this print reminds us of her influential role as both an empress and military strategist. Her legacy continues to captivate our imaginations centuries later. This remarkable piece is part of The Granger Collection's extensive archive, showcasing their commitment to preserving historical art for future generations. It serves as a testament to the enduring fascination surrounding one of history's most enigmatic figures - Queen Cleopatra VII.
