Power and Death are a tragedy and a piercing drama of human destiny. Cleopatra stands in the spotlight, a symbol of power and beauty, but her pride and majesty are limited by the skull — an eternal reminder of the death that awaits us all.

The snake intertwined around symbolizes the variability of life and the cunning of fate. It reminds us that even the most powerful individuals remain vulnerable to natural and historical forces.

Remember that Power and Death are intertwined in the lives of each of us, that even the greatest personalities carry their share of vulnerability and death is an inevitable part of human destiny.
