EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Cleopatra" by H Rider Haggard, transports us to the ancient world of Egypt. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II in the late 19th century, this print captures the essence of Cleopatra's enigmatic beauty and power. In this scene, we see Cleopatra standing on a lonely white chamber overlooking the Nile. The luminous waters reflect her radiant face as she gazes into the distance with an air of melancholy. Surrounding her are signs of both civilization and untamed nature - temples and banks juxtaposed against wild birds and rolling seas. The artist skillfully portrays Cleopatra as a figure caught between two worlds - that of men and brutes, gods and mortals. Her presence evokes a sense of loneliness amidst grandeur, as if she is forever trapped in her own primeval desires. H Rider Haggard's literary illustrations come alive through Woodville's masterful engraving technique. Every detail from Cleopatra's flowing attire to the monstrous sea plunging into deserts is meticulously rendered with precision. This picture serves not only as a visual delight but also offers us a glimpse into ancient Egypt's allure and mystique.

Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance while marveling at its
