EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Plate 3: Alexander Instructing his Soldiers" is a remarkable piece from the renowned series "The Deeds of Alexander the Great" created by Antonio Tempesta in 1608. The image transports us back to ancient Greece, where we witness the great conqueror, Alexander III of Macedonia, imparting his wisdom and strategy to his loyal soldiers. In this powerful depiction, King Alexander stands tall on his horse, gesturing with authority as he addresses his army. His commanding presence exudes confidence and determination as he prepares them for battle. Surrounding him are rows of brave soldiers mounted on their majestic horses, ready to follow their leader into war. Tempesta's masterful etching technique brings every detail to life - from the intricate armor worn by both men and horses to the expressions on their faces that reflect a mix of anticipation and resolve. The artist skillfully captures not only the physicality but also the spirit of these warriors. As we gaze upon this historic scene captured in time, we cannot help but be drawn into the world of ancient warfare and marvel at Alexander's prowess as a military strategist. This artwork serves as a testament to both Tempesta's artistic talent and our fascination with history. Displayed proudly at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print reminds us of our rich cultural heritage while honoring one of history's most iconic figures - Alexander the Great.
