EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Interview Between Octavian and Cleopatra" takes us back to the 1st century BC, capturing a pivotal moment in ancient history. The creator of this remarkable piece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the already intriguing subject matter. The image depicts the historic meeting between two powerful figures: Octavian, also known as Augustus Caesar, and Cleopatra VII, Queen of Egypt. Both dressed in regal attire that reflects their status as monarchs, they stand face-to-face amidst an atmosphere thick with suspicion and distrust. The engraving beautifully captures the tension between these adversaries. Their expressions reveal a complex mix of curiosity and caution as they engage in conversation. This encounter holds immense significance for both Rome and Egypt; it is a clash between empires that will shape the course of history. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this illustration from Cassell's Illustrated Universal History Vol. II - Rome by Edmund Ollier. It transports us back to the nineteenth century when this print was created by Cassell and Company Ltd. , evoking a sense of nostalgia for a time long past. As we gaze upon this portrait frozen in time, we are reminded of the enduring power held by these historical figures who left an indelible mark on literature, art, politics, and culture. The print serves as a testament to their legacy while inviting us to delve deeper into their fascinating story within the pages of our collective heritage.
