Arsinoe is a real beauty. I love her statue portrait, but in your rendering, she is so modern. The last take of Cleopatra is like a switch in time. Possibly the best reconstruction of her.
This is very well done. It humanizes these famous historical figures. Also, in your renderings, Cleopatra is indeed beautiful, she just isn't "baby faced" Elizabeth Taylor. She has strong cheekbones, and a large nose, to populations where people have such facial traits, she is a beauty. Well done!
Beware cleopatra vii seductive eyes . Octavian is my fictive brother . Beautiful on coins? she is Not. On busts not very pretty. The dead is more beautiful than the living they say. But I am wiser than Mark Anthony and Julius caesar when it comes to cleo, and women in general. I side with you on this point, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.
Venus de Milo, which was created by Greeks around 100 BC has a similar look, so the standards of beauty especially among southern Europeans in that period favored larger or more aquiline noses.
I am Egyptian, it is in my DNA. I have northern African, Maltese and southern African as well, and I am so honored that you are using the authentic depictions. This is very important to be true to the Egyptians. The sculptures of the man Ptolemy show how stunningly handsome he was. You depicted him with such good looking facial features. He was a good looking man. You did a very authentically close and beautiful depiction of Cleopatra. Thank you for keeping the integrity of Cleopatra by using the facial features depicted in stone. You are a blessing to authenticity in the world. These are fabulous and authentic portrayals as best as you could, you did a great job.

It is an honor to be part Egyptian. it is a great thing. Don't be so jealous. Go find out what you are and leave us Egyptians alone with our pride of ancestry.
@@ptolemyglenn79 Keep in mind that you are not Ptolemy. You might be psychotic if you think you are Ptolemy. Here is some information about him. Ptolemy, Latin in full Claudius Ptolemaeus, (born c. 100 CE-died c. 170 CE), an Egyptian astronomer, mathematician, and geographer of Greek descent who flourished in Alexandria during the 2nd century CE. In several fields his writings represent the culminating achievement of Greco-Roman science, particularly his geocentric (Earth-centred) model of the universe now known as the Ptolemaic system. Virtually nothing is known about Ptolemy’s life except what can be inferred from his writings. His first major astronomical work, the Almagest, was completed about 150 CE and contains reports of astronomical observations that Ptolemy had made over the preceding quarter of a century. The size and content of his subsequent literary production suggests that he lived until about 170 CE.

Inspite the nose she looks pretty and especially with the modern hair style she seems to be an interesting woman. You truly are able to bring them back to life!

Women can have larger noses and still look beautiful. I think we in the modern world oversize such noses to the point of ugly which is more about shape than actual size.
omg i've been searching the closest Cleopatra's face to the real one, trying to imagine, and i found this.. you made it!!!! Thankyou so much!! Can't thank you enough!
I believe the intent is to make the reconstructions accessible to modern eyes--- surprisingly accessible. Most ancient hairstyles are grossly artificial and contrived--- distracting from the real person. Ancient coifs were also often merely wigs. In any event, even ancient women had to let their hair down sometimes. These reconstructions are therefore intimate portraits.

These reconstructions gives the characters you are reading about in history, the enfleshment I need for an orthodox imagination about how they looked. Now that I know what they look like, I can connect with them, not only literarily but in a way virtually through the medium of the pages of history.Thank you
@@MalteseKat I disagree because the reconstructions tend to be closer to the ancient busts and indeed gives them life . Some imagination on the part of the artist is still needed however, eg for the color of the eyes. I think the artist is also following facial descriptions from the primary literature as well, and he has combined them with sculptural busts. Hence in my visual opinion they do look more Greco- Roman and of the era to which they belong; than looking anglican. Also, from the literary sources and the numerous busts and frescos we do have from that material culture ,we sure do have a very good idea of how the ancient greeks and Romans looked.The artist is doing is best and at most times he is uncannily on point.
@@MalteseKat Yes, well, the ancients seemed to be fairer and closer in appearance to people of Northern Europe than modern Mediterranean people. Remember, the modern populations are the result of those ancients plus a lot of invasions from other peoples. Most recently, the Ottoman Empire!
I don’t understand why some channels are depicting her and others as black when they were not. This insanity needs to stop. Keep your inferiority complex to yourself historians or whomever is responsible for altering history.

I LOVE YOU CLEOPATRA she was so beautiful and Ptolemy i believe in you from Egypt. She's a queen of Egypt from Greek-Macedon , born in Alexandria Ancient Egyptian.
The best portrayal of what Cleopatra must have looked like... Similar to what I had imagined... She was mesmerising because of her intelligence, heart, courage and beauty. A powerful combination not found in many.
Thank you for your great work of bringing to life those whose appearances have only existed in the creative centers of our minds. I have always had the feeling that Alexander the Great, whom they say was poisoned, was in fact eliminated by Ptolemy, his general, because when we see how Ptolemy took over and became the king, it looks like it was planned. I have heard that the story of Alexander’s exploits was only put to paper some 400 years after he lived, so what really happened we will never know. It’s just fantastic to see the sculptures-I am a sculptor---brought to life. Each sculptor of course sculpted his or her subjects with his or her own interpretation, so we can only have a global idea of what they must have looked like. But again, thanks to your work, we get a glimpse into our past and what a surprise to see that the greatest of all our past heroes were mostly in their prime, in their twenties and thirties.
@D.N. TE'KANNON Alexander generals were extremely loyal to him as they followed him far beyond reasonable levels. Only one of his cadre was disloyal to him.
@@bighands69 Gggggggggreat to hear from you! Will we ever know anything about Alexander the Great? I'm told the first biography of him was 300 years after his death. All we know is that in his time a man in his early thirties was at the height of his powers. I've always thought 34 was my best year because absolutely everything I wanted to do all the doors were open for me. What a life Alexander had to be tutored by Aristotle and then to go on winning battle after battle.
They spoke koine, the language used in Greek bible and religious services even today....with a little practice from both sides(them and modern Greek) they could blend right in.
@@olbiomoiros Every language changes over time. The wonderful thing about the Greek language is that these changes are very small compared to most Indo-Europeans
@@gelisgeo1309 Well, the last *major* change happened some time before the battle of Marathon. Since then, there have only been relatively minor changes.
I always wonder at these portraits. Some, especially Republic era Roman portraiture seems so raw and not made to flatter the subject while the greeks seem to add a bit more subtext to the persons portrait. Imagining them in human form is difficult for me so I appreciate the vids
This would be cool if you could do another version, this time using Cleo and her half sisters Arsinoe IV and Berenice IV.. if there are usable references for the sisters that is. Love your work bringing the faces of the past back to life bro.

Best rendition of Cleopatra I have ever seen and I have seen so many. The 2 statues look like sisters ... her real half sister also looks related but different. GREAT JOB! omg.
Συγχαρητήρια για την εξαιρετική απεικόνιση. Δίνει μια ζωντανή διάσταση στα ιστορικά πρόσωπα και χωρίς κανείς να το θέλει συγκρίνει την προσωπική τους ιστορία με την φυσιογνωμία τους.
Ευχαριστώ
I really loved Arsinoe III. looked stunningly beautiful and gorgeous.
The real Cleopatra is much more beautiful than every single media portrayal of her from 1917 to the present
Now I get why Marcus Antonius was simping so hard
Amazing ! Suggestion : THE FAYUM PORTRAITS would be interested !
Πολύ όμορφη δουλειά!Πολλά συγχαρητήρια!!!!Μόνο που στα σχόλια υπάρχουν κάποιοι που δεν γνωρίζουν καλά ιστορία και γράφουν ότι θέλουν....
Ευχαριστώ
Εξαιρετική δουλειά, φίλε, τους περίμενα τους Αλεξανδρινούς Βασιλείς!
So cool, I love these!
Your work is always amazing. Could you slow down your titles or list them? Also I love the music you are choosing. Who is singing this version of the song? It would be wonderful if you would list your music also. Thank you!
I agree the depictions are really great & very interesting.
Historical figures we all learnt about are now humanised in your great work.
But I also agree please slow down the titles.
They go by too fast & you have to keep going back when reading them.
Thank you
I know that we don't really *know* what they looked like, but it's nice to imagine them looking like that based on sculptures.
Their sculptures probably look nothing like their actual faces.
I really enjoy looking at your work, there is no comparison around.👍
I really enjoy these but I would enjoy them even more if you would slow down a bit when the text is up. I’m not a slow reader by any means, but come on! 🤓
use the pause button like i do.
I am very moved to see Ptolemy, the result is really amazing
Pan............... spot on. Even my kids are looking at your vids. Giving "life" to statues is a most interesting thing.
thanks
You did a lovely portrayal, thank you 🙏💕!
Great Work. Very Well Done!
I love ancient history, it fascinates me.
Sensacionel! Magnifique!
dislikes from people who cant deal with the fact that Cleo was NOT black wahaman....

Cleópatra era muito inteligente, perspicaz, ambiciosa.
Adorei o seu trabalho! Muito obrigada.
Queen CLEO WAS WHITE/ EUROPEAN, Her Family was from MACEDONIA , GREECE, Some people think she was Black African because she was Egypt Queen, ALEXANDER THE GREAT Conquer Egypt and put is General / half Brother PTOLERMY first king of EGYPT
I Remember another story. Ptolemy killed Perdicca and stole egypt.
Even Julius Ceasar and Marcus Antonius had a crush on Cleopatra - I realize why 😍
@NUMBER ELEVEN in between - greek
Greek is not INBETWEEN 🤦♀️🤦♀️😅lol!! It's Caucasian!!
@NUMBER ELEVEN Cleopatra was from Ptolemy dynasty. She was Greek which means she was white.
@NUMBER ELEVEN That's goood question mate.
@NUMBER ELEVEN it comes from some crazy nationalist theories, black nationalism this time.
Wow amazing artwork and so realistic. I feel like I’m there in the Roman days.
Amazing! they all look so beautiful
I love these interpretations of Cleopatra.
Cleopatra.was not a white woman neither do white people carry this name--stop trying to plant yourselves in our history, its sickening, whites do not belong there
@@randyeduo Cleopatra was literally Greek thus she was white.
@@randyeduo dude she was Greek descent… geez
@@randyeduo Cleopatra was GREEK even her name is GREEK
@@randyeduo stick to west african history....🛖🛖🛖🛖🛖
Εξαιρετική δουλειά... Μια παρατήρηση μόνο
Μην βιάζεσαι να βγάζεις τα κείμενα τόσο γρήγορα δώσε μας λίγο χρόνο να τα διαβάζουμε με άνεση...
Καλή συνέχεια κ σε ευχαριστούμε...
Έγινε.
I LOVE YOU CLEOPATRA she was so beautiful and Ptolemy i believe in you from Egypt. She's a queen of Egypt from Greek-Macedon , born in Alexandria Ancient Egyptian.
This is amazing 😮
Wow wow Wow... You are brilliant...You really bring them back to life.. Please keep doing what you do its absolutely amazing..
The best portrayal of what Cleopatra must have looked like... Similar to what I had imagined... She was mesmerising because of her intelligence, heart, courage and beauty. A powerful combination not found in many.
Thank you for your great work of bringing to life those whose appearances have only existed in the creative centers of our minds. I have always had the feeling that Alexander the Great, whom they say was poisoned, was in fact eliminated by Ptolemy, his general, because when we see how Ptolemy took over and became the king, it looks like it was planned. I have heard that the story of Alexander’s exploits was only put to paper some 400 years after he lived, so what really happened we will never know. It’s just fantastic to see the sculptures-I am a sculptor---brought to life. Each sculptor of course sculpted his or her subjects with his or her own interpretation, so we can only have a global idea of what they must have looked like. But again, thanks to your work, we get a glimpse into our past and what a surprise to see that the greatest of all our past heroes were mostly in their prime, in their twenties and thirties.
Ptolemy was only king in Egypt. Alexander’s empire was split up between his generals.
@D.N. TE'KANNON
Alexander generals were extremely loyal to him as they followed him far beyond reasonable levels.
Only one of his cadre was disloyal to him.
@@bighands69 Gggggggggreat to hear from you! Will we ever know anything about Alexander the Great? I'm told the first biography of him was 300 years after his death. All we know is that in his time a man in his early thirties was at the height of his powers. I've always thought 34 was my best year because absolutely everything I wanted to do all the doors were open for me. What a life Alexander had to be tutored by Aristotle and then to go on winning battle after battle.
Even thou ancient Greek that they spoke probably sounds different to modern day Greek. They could blend in with the people in Greece you see today.
They spoke koine, the language used in Greek bible and religious services even today....with a little practice from both sides(them and modern Greek) they could blend right in.
Koine (comon ) greek was the language
almost the same as today. Orthodox church use it even now.
Well, obviously. The Greek language has seen major changes
@@olbiomoiros Every language changes over time. The wonderful thing about the Greek language is that these changes are very small compared to most Indo-Europeans
@@gelisgeo1309 Well, the last *major* change happened some time before the battle of Marathon. Since then, there have only been relatively minor changes.
I love the music you chose, very appropriate
Συγχαρητήρια.Καταπληκτική δουλειά.
Καθαρά ελληνικά χαρακτηριστικά.!!!!!
Cleopatra is still one of my favorite queens ♥
Beautiful Cleopatra
I always wonder at these portraits. Some, especially Republic era Roman portraiture seems so raw and not made to flatter the subject while the greeks seem to add a bit more subtext to the persons portrait. Imagining them in human form is difficult for me so I appreciate the vids
This would be cool if you could do another version, this time using Cleo and her half sisters Arsinoe IV and Berenice IV.. if there are usable references for the sisters that is.
Love your work bringing the faces of the past back to life bro.
Good work and always fascinating to watch. I would prefer no music at all and more time laps provided to read the editing. Thank you.
