EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Cleopatra" transports us back to ancient Egypt, immersing us in the world of one of history's most enigmatic figures. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II after H Rider Haggard's literary masterpiece, this print captures the essence of Cleopatra's allure and power. In this scene, we find Cleopatra herself, depicted with striking beauty and elegance. She is shown bending over a harp, her fingers delicately plucking its strings. The artist skillfully portrays her as a wandering soul lost in the enchanting melodies she creates. The harp itself stands tall beside her, its raised chords waiting to be struck by her deft touch. Woodville's attention to detail brings out the richness of ancient Egyptian culture; from Cleopatra's regal attire adorned with intricate patterns to the grandeur of her surroundings. This illustration originally graced the pages of The Illustrated London News in 1889 and has since become an iconic representation of Cleopatra. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into a world where literature meets artistry—a world where imagination intertwines with historical accuracy. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, Cleopatra continues to captivate our hearts and minds through various artistic mediums. This remarkable engraving is part of Bridgeman Images' collection and offers us an opportunity to appreciate both H Rider Haggard's literary genius and Richard Caton Woodville II's exceptional
