"Death of Cleopatra" is a renowned painting by the Italian Baroque artist Guido Reni, depicting the tragic demise of the famous Egyptian queen, Cleopatra VII. Reni, born in Bologna in 1575, was a prominent figure in the Baroque movement, known for his classical style and influence from the Carracci school of painting. The artwork captures the moment after Cleopatra has succumbed to the venomous bite of an asp, a symbol of her sovereignty and the instrument of her suicide, as recorded by ancient historians.

The painting is a masterful representation of the Baroque fascination with drama, emotion, and the exploration of themes such as death and martyrdom. Reni's depiction of Cleopatra is imbued with a sense of nobility and tragic beauty, reflecting the queen's historical reputation as a figure of both political power and romantic allure. The artist's use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and dark, serves to heighten the emotional intensity of the scene and draw the viewer's attention to the lifeless body of Cleopatra.

Guido Reni's "Death of Cleopatra" is a significant work within the canon of European art history, offering insight into the cultural and artistic preoccupations of the Baroque period. The painting not only showcases Reni's technical skill and stylistic elegance but also contributes to the enduring legacy of Cleopatra as a subject of fascination in Western art and literature. The exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, but it is generally attributed to Reni's mature period, likely painted in the early 17th century. Today, the artwork is held in a notable art collection, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
