Waterhouse Masterpiece Found In Colorado

“A voluptuous Victorian masterpiece by John William Waterhouse [depicting a sultry Cleopatra reclining on a tiger skin,] which had disappeared for more than a hundred years, has turned up in a log cabin in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. The discovery was announced yesterday by Christie’s, just days after the news that another lost Waterhouse had been tracked down by Sotheby’s to an Icelandic trawler owner.”
