Complete story from Classics Illustrated No. 161 ( March 1961 ), "Cleopatra" by H. Rider Haggard. "During the late 1950s and early 1960s, the prolific and accomplished Norman Nodel defined the increasingly polished Classics Illustrated house style. Among Nodel´s strengths were a good compositional eye, a realistic approach to his subjects, an instinct for appropriate atmosphere, close attention to period detail and an ability to create convincing caricatures and fantastic figures within a solidly representational context. These qualities enabled him to produce some of the finest and most memorable books in the series. In "Cleopatra" Nodel included a wealth of Hellenized Egyptian details" ( from the excellent book about Classics Illustrated by W.B.Jones ). As the story progresses, Nodel will prove that his Cleopatra may well turn the head of any Roman. Large size art with image area 12"x18".
