EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Lubok print from 1869, depicting the legendary Alexander the Great. Lubki prints were popular in Russia during the 19th century and featured simplistic graphics that narrated stories inspired by literature, religion, and folklore. This particular artwork can be found in the esteemed collection of the State Russian Museum in St Petersburg. In this vibrant image, we see Alexander on horseback, exuding power and authority as he leads his conquests across ancient lands. Dressed in regal attire with a magnificent helmet adorning his head, he epitomizes the essence of a fearless warrior king. The artist has skillfully captured every detail of his majestic presence. The scene transports us back to an era when Macedonia was under Alexander's rule. With sword in hand and surrounded by loyal soldiers and tents signifying military campaigns, it is evident that war is at hand. The horses galloping alongside him symbolize strength and agility. This remarkable piece of art not only pays homage to one of history's greatest conquerors but also serves as a testament to human resilience and ambition throughout centuries past. It reminds us of our innate desire for exploration, conquest, and leaving an indelible mark on history. As we gaze upon this masterpiece from another time period through modern eyes, we are reminded once again of Alexander's enduring legacy as both a military genius and an influential figure who shaped civilizations long ago.
