EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the magnificent sculpture titled "Alexander Victorious" by Pierre Puget, displayed at the Louvre in Paris, France. The image showcases the marble masterpiece, standing tall at 110x84x58 cm. This stunning artwork is a replica of the original modello created by Puget in 1783 for an equestrian statue of Louis XIV intended for Versailles. It depicts Alexander the Great, the legendary Macedonian king from 356-323 BC. In this portrayal, Alexander stands triumphantly on horseback, adorned in full armor and wielding a sword. His plumed helmet adds to his regal appearance as he confidently rides his steed named Bucephalus. The sculpture exudes a sense of power and victory with its intricate details capturing every muscle and movement. The horse rears up while trampling over defeated enemies beneath its hooves. Puget's skillful craftsmanship brings life to this baroque masterpiece that symbolizes not only military prowess but also leadership and conquest. Its presence at the Louvre serves as a testament to its artistic significance throughout history. This photograph taken by Giraudon in 1926 allows viewers to appreciate both the artistry of Puget's work and Alexander's enduring legacy as one of history's greatest conquerors.
