Description
After her defeat at the hands of Octavian, Cleopatra, the Queen of Egypt, killed herself in 31 BC with the bite of an asp. This bust was part of a series dedicated to "stateswomen" from antiquity. The series was drawn by the Swede Cronstrom in July 1697, while the works were still in the sculptor's studio.

I always wondered how sculpts would look like if painted. This started when I was told that the sculpts in the metope of Parthenon where painted and what remains today is the decoloured marble after many ages.
Some times I just try to paint, but in other cases, something provocative comes into my mind and I follow a more creative path. In any case, enjoy!
