EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Bust of Cleopatra" created by Italian sculptor Giacomo Filippo Parodi in the late 17th century. Carved from creamy-white marble, this stunning piece is a testament to Parodi's mastery and attention to detail. The bust depicts Cleopatra, the iconic Egyptian queen known for her beauty and allure. With her eyes closed and mouth slightly open, she exudes an air of mystery and contemplation. Her elaborate hairstyle adds to her regal presence, while the decolletage accentuates her femininity. Supported on a circular verde antico socle, the sculpture stands as a true work of art within the Fitzwilliam Museum at the University of Cambridge in the UK. The combination of white marble against the greenish hue of its base creates a visually striking contrast that further enhances its aesthetic appeal. Parodi's skillful craftsmanship shines through every curve and contour, making this bust an exceptional example of Baroque sculpture. Its intricate carving captures both delicate features and bold expressions with remarkable precision. As we admire this masterpiece captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to experience Cleopatra's timeless beauty firsthand. This print serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries or limitations – it transcends time and space to inspire generations with its everlasting charm.
