Hi,
I hope you all like it, i spend a lot of time making it. This is Cleopatra by Michelangelo it came from the a sketch that he did to Cavlieri.
(This is one of the few authenticated drawings of Michelangelo and was drawn for Tommaso de' Cavalieri, a young artist that Michelangelo passionately loved. This is the only drawing, of what Michelangelo claimed many drawings presenting to Cavlieri, that we have left. The drawing is a study for a bust of Cleopatra and possibly represents the conflicted nature of Michelangelo's love for Cavalieri since Cleopatra was widely understood in the Renaissance as immasculating Caesar and later Marc Antony with her beauty.)
I gave her a mixed or racially mixed color as is known, because that is the color that dominated the Egyptian land the racially mixed color. Tambien the black pure hair and with a long tress that tambien tipico Egyptian. The snake as already they know the history about her that I kill themselves with a poisonous snake. The dark background gives an environment that all is going to finish and their tender and worrying look to the same time, the agony in their eyes can be seen and as the genius of Miguel Angel grasp that moment. The curtain i give a look of meterial rough and I gave an aspect of torches at side. Her clothing is like a silky look that are seen as metalic when the light hit it. It has their lips painted with lipstips is seen that they excel, i painted a clean face because MA work is clean and his work are simple and pratical. All this work was thinking as MA would it do it, i think.
I hope u all like it.
