John William Waterhouse's "Cleopatra" (1887) portrays the famed Egyptian queen in a moment of regal repose. Waterhouse, known for his Pre-Raphaelite style, captures Cleopatra's enigmatic beauty and power, showcasing her in a flowing white gown adorned with opulent gold jewelry. Her languid pose, resting her hand on a sphinx, hints at the allure and mystery surrounding her figure. The painting's rich palette and intricate details evoke the opulence of the ancient Egyptian court, drawing the viewer into Cleopatra's world.
