EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intriguing illustration titled "The Death of Cleopatra" depicting the tragic end of the renowned Queen of Egypt, Cleopatra VII Thea Philopator. In this powerful image created by Tancredi Scarpelli in 1930, we witness a pivotal moment in history as Cleopatra takes her own life through the venomous bite of two aspics snakes. Cleopatra's suicide marked not only the end of her reign but also symbolized the demise of ancient Egypt's sovereignty. With great attention to detail and emotion, Scarpelli skillfully captures the despair and determination on Cleopatra's face as she embraces her fate. The artist's portrayal offers a poignant representation of this historical event that has captivated countless minds throughout centuries. Originally featured in Paolo Giant Udici's "Storia d Italia" (History of Italy), this illustration holds immense artistic and historical significance. Preserved within a private collection, it serves as a testament to both Scarpelli's talent and his contribution to Italian art during his lifetime.
