EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Crossing Granicus La galerie de l hostel royal" showcases a remarkable scene from history. The image depicts the Crossing of the Granicus, an event that took place during the reign of Alexander the Great. In this particular artwork, we are presented with a glimpse into the grandeur and opulence of the Royal Goblins' Gallery. The print is part of a larger series called "Les batailles d Alexandre" or Battles of Alexander, which highlights various triumphs and actions of this legendary conqueror. Created by Sebastien Leclerc in 1696, this engraving captures intricate details through etching techniques in black and white. What makes this specific print even more intriguing is its connection to Monseigneur Colbert, who was able to witness these magnificent tapestries depicting Alexander's feats on Monsieur Le Brun's paintings. The presence of Colbert's crest with his arms adds an extra layer of significance to this historical piece. Mounted together on a board alongside two other prints from the suite, it offers viewers a comprehensive visual narrative. This particular version belongs to either state iii or iv and bears markings such as "64 / 170" penciled below and "58" stamped in blue on its mount. Overall, this print provides us with an extraordinary window into both ancient history and artistic craftsmanship while preserving an important moment for posterity.
