EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative print, the momentous Battle of Cunaxa in 401 BC is brought to life, as Persian Prince Cyrus the Younger (left) clashes with his brother Artaxerxes (right) on the plains of Asia. The historical event marked a pivotal turning point in the Greco-Persian Wars, with Cyrus leading an army of 10,000 Greek mercenaries in a failed attempt to conquer the Persian Empire. The scene captures the intensity and brutality of ancient warfare, as the princes engage in hand-to-hand combat with their spears at close range. The determination etched on their faces and the fierce stance of their warriors reflect the high stakes of the battle, which would ultimately result in the retreat of Xenophon and his Greeks. The Battle of Cunaxa took place near the city of Cunaxa in Assyria, and was a significant defeat for Cyrus. Despite his initial successes, the Greeks were unable to hold their ground against the larger Persian army, and were forced to retreat. This event is a testament to the power and might of the Persian Empire at the height of its power, and the resilience of the Greek forces in the face of overwhelming odds. The historical significance of the Battle of Cunaxa is still felt today, as it is a key moment in the annals of ancient history. The retreat of Xenophon and his Greeks is a remarkable tale of survival and endurance, and the legacy of this battle continues to inspire and fascinate scholars and history enthusiasts alike. This print offers a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the battlefields of ancient Asia and the epic struggle between two powerful rulers.
