Arthur Weigall, a member of Lord Carnarvon's expedition that discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun, was a renowned expert on ancient Egypt. A scholar and writer, he created a detailed and beautiful portrait of the most extraordinary woman of Antiquity. Cleopatra came to power at the age of eighteen, spoke seven languages, revived the rituals of ancient Egyptian religion, and adopted the symbol of the divine essence of the Mother Goddess Hathor, daughter of the Great Ra. Fearless, ambitious, and charming, she was greatly loved by her people. A savvy and sharp-minded ruler, she defended women's rights by all means possible and supported female rulers of small and weak states.
