"The Head of Cyrus Brought to Queen Tomyris" is a painting by the Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens, created circa 1622-1623. This work of art depicts a scene from Herodotus's Histories, where the severed head of the Persian king Cyrus the Great is presented to Queen Tomyris of the Massagetae after his defeat in battle. The painting is a dramatic representation of the moment of revenge, as Tomyris had warned Cyrus against his imperial ambitions and, following his death, is said to have submerged his head in a vessel of blood to satiate his thirst for bloodshed.

Rubens, known for his exuberant and grandiose Baroque style, captures the intensity of the moment with vivid colors, dynamic composition, and powerful emotional expression. The painting is a testament to Rubens's masterful handling of historical and mythological subjects, imbuing them with a sense of immediacy and drama. The artwork is also reflective of the political tensions of Rubens's time, as it was created during the Thirty Years' War, a period when themes of conflict and power were particularly resonant.

The painting is part of Rubens's larger body of work that explores themes of power, violence, and vengeance, often through the lens of classical and historical narratives. "The Head of Cyrus Brought to Queen Tomyris" is notable for its striking portrayal of a female ruler, a subject that aligns with Rubens's interest in strong and influential women from history and mythology.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting's current location and ownership are not specified. However, it remains an important example of Rubens's ability to convey complex narratives through his art, and it continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
