EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable detail of a mosaic from Pompeii, depicting the Battle of Issos between Alexander the Great and Darius. The focal point of this image is none other than Alexander himself, mounted on his trusted steed Bucephalus. Alexander the Great, known for his military prowess and strategic brilliance, is depicted here in all his glory. With an air of confidence and determination, he sits atop his majestic horse, ready to lead his troops into battle against Darius and the Persian Empire. The opus vermiculatum technique used in creating this mosaic adds depth and intricacy to every aspect of the artwork. The vibrant colors bring life to the scene, capturing both the intensity and grandeur of ancient warfare. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in history. The clash between these two legendary figures symbolizes not only their personal rivalry but also represents a collision between East and West. This photograph serves as a testament to human achievement in artistry as well as an homage to one of history's greatest conquerors. It reminds us that even after centuries have passed since Alexander's reign, his legacy continues to captivate our imagination. Through Patrice Cartier's lens, we are granted a glimpse into ancient times where heroes rode horses into battle amidst epic clashes that shaped civilizations forever.
