EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century print, titled "Augustus before the Tomb of Alexander the Great" showcases a significant historical moment. Painted by Sebastien Bourdon, it depicts the Roman Emperor Augustus paying homage to the legendary Macedonian king's tomb in Alexandria, Egypt. The artist masterfully captures the scene with vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. In this baroque-era artwork, we see Augustus surrounded by his entourage and mounted on a majestic horse as he gazes upon the grand mausoleum that houses Alexander's remains. The composition exudes power and reverence, highlighting both Augustus' own authority as well as his admiration for Alexander's legacy. This painting symbolizes a profound connection between two great rulers from different eras. It serves as a testament to Augustus' desire to emulate Alexander's achievements and solidify his own position within history. The image evokes contemplation on themes such as mortality, succession, and the enduring impact of influential figures throughout time. Preserved in the collection of the State Hermitage in St Petersburg, Russia, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its rich historical context and artistic brilliance. As we gaze at this masterpiece today, we are reminded of both ancient civilizations' grandeur and their lasting influence on our modern world.
