EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic painting "Alexander taming Bucephalus" by Giambattista Tiepolo, a renowned artist of the 18th century. The artwork can be found in the esteemed collection of Petit Palais, Musee des Beaux-Arts de la Ville de Paris. The image depicts a pivotal moment in ancient Greek history, where Alexander the Great, also known as Alexander III of Macedon, is seen skillfully taming his beloved horse Bucephalus. With its vibrant colors and masterful brushstrokes, Tiepolo's oil on canvas composition brings to life this legendary tale. In this allegorical masterpiece, mythology intertwines with literature and history as it portrays the young king of Macedon asserting his dominance over both man and beast. The bond between Alexander and Bucephalus symbolizes their shared strength and determination. As we gaze upon this fine art piece, we are transported back to an era when Macedonia flourished under Alexander's rule. This print serves as a reminder of his extraordinary achievements and legacy that shaped not only ancient Greece but also influenced civilizations for centuries to come.
