Description
Not only was Cleopatra the Queen of the Nile, but she was also a very cunning business woman. On a piece of papyrus found near a grave site, near Cairo, in 1904, it was written that a shipment of wheat was to be shipped out of Egypt “duty free” in exchange for substantial import of wine. It was to be given to Publius Canidius, an aide to Mark Anthony. At the bottom of the papyrus Cleopatra had scribbled the Greek word, genethoi. Roughly translated, that word means “let it be so” or “make it happen!”
So, more than 2050 years ago, Cleopatra had actually coined the phrase, “get ‘er done!” This is way before Larry the Cable Guy came up with it ! ! !
Thanks for looking ! ! !

Great pic
The invite seems a little sinister
Oh, I love your Cleopatra! Absolutely superb image!
Beautiful render, love the character and your use of color..Nice work all round!!!
Yes, Cleopatra was a colorful character. Unfortunately, she allied with the wrong guy. So they will go down for all time as the woman who drove the Egyptian empire to the wall ... Fabulous Render, my friend!
