EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back in time to witness a significant moment in history as Alexander the Great hands over his beloved Campaspe to the renowned artist Apelles. Painted by Charles Meynier in 1822, this oil on canvas masterpiece beautifully captures the emotions and complexities of power, love, and art. Alexander the Great, known for his military prowess and conquests, is depicted here wearing a majestic helmet that symbolizes his status as ruler of Macedonia. Standing tall and commanding attention, he introduces Campaspe to Apelles with a sense of both pride and resignation. The concubine's delicate veil hints at her vulnerability while also emphasizing her beauty. Apelles himself is portrayed as an accomplished painter with an air of confidence surrounding him. As he receives Campaspe from Alexander's grasp, one can almost feel the weight of responsibility that comes with capturing her essence on canvas. The presence of Cupid and Venus adds another layer of complexity to this scene. Cupid represents love while Venus embodies desire and passion. Their inclusion suggests that there may be more than meets the eye when it comes to Alexander's relationship with Campaspe. Overall, Meynier skillfully brings together elements from Greek mythology and historical events to create a thought-provoking composition that invites viewers into a world where power intersects with artistry and human emotions intertwine.
