Fotoreproductie van een prent naar een reliëf door Anne Seymour Damer, voorstellend een scene uit Antonius en Cleopatra door William Shakespeare before 1864

This photo reproduction by Stephen Ayling depicts a scene from Act V, Scene II of William Shakespeare’s play *Antony and Cleopatra* showing Cleopatra’s death. The image, based on a relief sculpture by Anne Seymour Damer, captures the moment when Cleopatra is being carried to her death by two attendants. The scene is framed by the text of the play and is a small-scale work, measuring only 60mm by 99mm. The image is a good example of how art can be used to illustrate literature and offer viewers a visual interpretation of a well-known text.
