"Antony and Cleopatra" is an engraving by Agostino Carracci, a prominent Italian artist of the late 16th century. The print depicts the legendary Roman general Mark Antony and the Egyptian queen Cleopatra in an intimate embrace, hinting at their famed love affair. This work, characteristic of Carracci's style, combines Classical elements with Baroque dynamism. The engraving is likely based on a lost painting by the artist. This is a rare surviving work by Agostino Carracci and is important for understanding his artistic development.
