EDITORS COMMENTS
Franz von Matsch's captivating charcoal, pencil, and tempera in gold and white drawing, titled "Cleopatra" (c1910s), offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the enigmatic world of the legendary Egyptian queen. Depicted in a three-quarter view, Cleopatra VII Philopator, also known as Cleopatra VII Thea Philopator, the Queen of Egypt, is shown wearing an elaborate headdress adorned with gold and precious stones. The monarch, renowned for her beauty and intelligence, is often associated with the Hellenistic period, a fusion of Greek and Egyptian cultures that flourished in the eastern Mediterranean from around 323 to 30 BC. This evocative artwork, created by the esteemed Austrian artist Franz von Matsch (1861-1942), is a testament to the enduring fascination with the ancient world and the artistic movements of the early 20th century, such as Jugendstil and historicism. The black and white, or monochrome, medium adds an air of mystery and timelessness to the piece, further emphasizing the allure of the queen and her storied past. Originally from Austria, Matsch was a prominent figure in the Austrian art scene and his works can be found in various museums and galleries, including the Belvedere Museum in Vienna. This portrait of Cleopatra, with its intricate details and masterful use of charcoal and pencil, is a must-see for anyone interested in ancient history, art, or the rich cultural heritage of Europe and the Mediterranean.
