"Cleopatra" is a painting by the Swiss symbolist artist Arnold Böcklin, created in the late 19th century. The work is a representation of the historical figure Cleopatra VII, the last active ruler of the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt, who is often depicted in art and literature. Böcklin's interpretation of Cleopatra is infused with the symbolist movement's characteristic focus on emotion, myth, and the subconscious.

The painting portrays Cleopatra in a moment of dramatic intensity, which is typical of Böcklin's approach to his subjects, where he often combined elements of the real and the mythic. His Cleopatra may be shown in the act of contemplating her imminent demise or engaged in a moment of seduction, reflecting the complex legacy of the queen, who has been variously portrayed as a political power player, a femme fatale, and a tragic heroine.

Böcklin's work is noted for its vivid detail, rich color palette, and the haunting atmosphere that pervades his scenes. "Cleopatra" is no exception, with its meticulous attention to the textures of fabrics and surfaces, and the use of light and shadow to create a sense of depth and mood. The painting's composition and the figure's pose are carefully constructed to lead the viewer's eye and evoke an emotional response.

As with many of Böcklin's paintings, "Cleopatra" reflects the artist's fascination with death and the afterlife, themes that recur throughout his oeuvre. The painting may include symbolic elements or references to Egyptian mythology and culture, which serve to anchor the figure of Cleopatra within her historical and cultural context.

"Cleopatra" by Arnold Böcklin is an important work within the symbolist movement and the artist's body of work, offering insight into the late 19th-century European artistic and cultural milieu. The painting is significant for its exploration of historical narrative through a symbolist lens, and for its contribution to the enduring visual legacy of one of history's most enigmatic and powerful women.
