EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the regal presence of Antiochus the Great, a Seleucid king who reigned during the 3rd century BC. The portrait, created by Pieter Bodart in 1755, showcases the meticulous detail and artistry of this ancient ruler. Antiochus III Megas, as he was also known, was the son of Seleucus II and played a significant role in shaping ancient Greece's history. His reign marked a period of expansion for the Seleucid Empire, as he successfully conquered vast territories across Asia Minor and even challenged Rome's dominance in that region. In this print, Antiochus is depicted with an air of authority and confidence befitting his royal status. The artist skillfully captures every intricate detail from his facial features to his majestic attire. This engraving serves as a testament to both Antiochus' power and influence during his time. The use of black and white adds a timeless quality to this piece, emphasizing its historical significance. It transports us back to the XVIIIth century when it was first published by Henricus Spoors Deorum et Heroum - an esteemed collection illustrating gods, heroes, men, women from antiquity. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, we are reminded of Antiochus' legacy as one of Ancient Greece's most notable kings.
