Jahrhunders; Auf einem Thron mit stilisierten Hieroglyphen und Löwenkopfmaskarons sitzende Kleopatra als Halbakt in sinnierender Pose, in der rechten Hand einen Fächer haltend.

Überdies beschickte Moreau die Weltausstellungen 1855, 1867, 1878 und 1889. Neben kleinen Bronzen schuf er auch eine Reihe von Denkmälern und Brunnen, mit denen er internationale Beachtung in Europa, Nord- und Südamerika fand. Gesellschaft H. 77 cm.
