Zenobia Captive, 1878 - A Glimpse into the Tragic Tale of a Warrior Queen

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases Edward John Poynter's masterpiece, "Zenobia Captive" painted in 1878. The oil on canvas painting depicts Zenobia, the formidable queen of the Palmyrene Empire during the third century. Standing at 71.2x53.4 cm, this artwork captures Zenobia's royal essence and her ultimate defeat. In this poignant portrayal, Zenobia is shown wearing an ornate crown and adorned with bangles and jewelry that reflect her exotic heritage. However, these symbols of power are overshadowed by her chains as she stands defeated and captive after being conquered by Emperor Aurelian in 274. Poynter skillfully portrays Zenobia's profile to emphasize both her regal beauty and the anguish she must have felt in captivity. The artist pays meticulous attention to detail, highlighting every brushstroke that brings out the gold diadem against turquoise accents—a testament to his mastery. This painting not only serves as a visual feast for art enthusiasts but also offers a glimpse into history—an exploration of ancient conflicts between empires. It invites us to contemplate Zenobia's bravery as a Syrian warrior queen who dared challenge Rome's dominance over Egypt. Displayed here is Bridgeman Images' high-quality print from their private collection—evidence of their commitment to preserving fine art for generations to come. Let this image transport you back in
