Cleopatra (Original Collage and Acrylic on Cardboard, Framed, 30×40cm, 2017)
A powerful portrait of Egypt’s last pharaoh, blending ancient symbolism with modern technique. Cleopatra’s regal gaze meets softly emerging hieroglyphs, while gold leaf accents on her headdress and collar shimmer with divine presence.
Subtle brushwork around the eyes evokes intelligence and mystery, and a single cobra silhouette pays tribute to her legendary status. Signed and completed in 2017, this original collage was awarded the International Prize Raffaello & Canova and nominated for Italy’s A Design Award, celebrating both Cleopatra’s legacy and the artist’s mastery of symbolic portraiture.
Perfect for collectors who value historical depth, feminine power, and richly layered mixed-media art. Read more: https://www.urvetonnusart.eu/international-prize-raffaello-canova/
