Artist's Comments
Antony and Cleopatra shown here during their golden years together. Antony was now living in Egypt with Cleopatra, and was the King consort to the Egyption Queen. They both hold the staves of ruling from upper and lower Egypt that a Pharaoh holds, one in each hand. Here showing their devotion, Antony and Cleopatra intimately holding each other, each hold one of these ruling staves, reaching out together over their beloved land of Egypt.
Apart from being used as Game art for Aristocrat, the company also used this art (with some printed foil adjustments and seasons greetings) as their Christmas card for 2005. Art by Jozef Szekeres, Copyright belongs to Aristocrat Technologies Australia Pty Limited. Used with Permission. Comments Lovely work!
 Antony looks so cute, like a little lost roman puppy
-- what, you were expecting something witty here?  beautifully done, and this is definitely my all-time favorite love story!
 Lovely painting, with a good composition and characters
 -- Think positive  The first word into my mind is WOW! Beautiful detail and coloring! I know the legend of Antony and Cleopatra, but your work brings them to life for me! Thank you for the view!
-- "I smile because I have no idea what's going on," she said as she stuck her fingers in her ears and started to sing, "La,la,la,la..."  This is gorgeous. I love the subject and you conveyed it very well! I know it was used for game art but please tell a print version will be available someday!
 Absolutely beautiful. I've had a long-time love of the stories of Antony and Cleopatra, and this is one of the most beautiful and detailed pieces I've seen of them. Stunning!
-- I reject your reality and substitute my own --Mythbusters. Thank you so much.
There are so many beautiful paintings that depict this very special union between these historic characters, and I looked at as many as I could find, so that when I got to doing my own, I'd know what had been done before, so as not to repeat it.
It was used as a greeting card by Aristocrat. On the art I do for Aristocrat, it is entirely up to them as to how it is commercially used. Only my private work is owned and controlled by me in this way.

 reports, 1d 8h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.
