"Suicidio di Cleopatra" (The Suicide of Cleopatra) is a renowned oil painting by the Italian Baroque artist Ludovico Mazzanti (1686–1775). Created in 1740, this artwork is a vivid representation of the tragic demise of Cleopatra VII, the last active ruler of the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt. Mazzanti, known for his dynamic compositions and emotive storytelling, captures the moment of Cleopatra's suicide with dramatic intensity and a keen attention to detail.

The painting is part of a rich tradition of European art that sought to depict historical and mythological subjects with a blend of accuracy, drama, and emotion. "Suicidio di Cleopatra" stands out for its dramatic use of light and shadow, which highlights the despair and determination on Cleopatra's face as she resolves to end her life rather than be paraded as a captive by Octavian, the future Emperor Augustus of Rome. Mazzanti's work is characterized by its rich color palette and the detailed rendering of textures, from the sumptuous fabrics surrounding Cleopatra to the lethal asp she uses to commit suicide.

This painting not only reflects the artistic trends of the Baroque period, with its emphasis on dramatic subjects and complex compositions, but also contributes to the cultural legacy of Cleopatra VII. Through Mazzanti's lens, viewers are invited to contemplate themes of power, despair, and the tragic beauty of sacrifice. "Suicidio di Cleopatra" remains a significant work in the study of 18th-century Italian art, offering insights into the period's aesthetic preferences and historical fascinations.

Currently housed in the Museo di Roma in Palazzo Braschi, Rome, "Suicidio di Cleopatra" continues to attract scholars and art enthusiasts alike, serving as a testament to Ludovico Mazzanti's skill and the enduring allure of Cleopatra's story.
