Zenobia's last look on Palmyra; by Herbert Gustave Schmalz, 1888 CE.
Zenobia, Queen of Palmyrene Empire (260-273 CE) whose rebellion was destroyed by Roman Emperor Aurelian (214-275 CE), she was chained and taken from Palmyra to Rome. Her ultimate fate is unknown.
Interesting Claim - a soldier at bottom right of picture, who was assigned to kill Zenobia, but could not fulfill his duty because he fell in love with her as soon as he saw her.
