EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - The Battle of Issus. Taking place on November 5, 333 BC, in southern Anatolia (modern-day Turkey), this battle was part of the Wars of Alexander the Great. The image showcases the clash between two mighty forces: the Hellenic League led by Alexander the Great and the Achaemenid Empire under Darius III. In this engraving from Cassells Universal History, published in 1888, we witness an intense battlefield scene with armies engaged in fierce combat. The historical significance of this event cannot be overstated. It marked a turning point in Alexander's conquests as he defeated Darius III and secured his dominance over Asia Minor. This victory paved the way for further expansion into Persia and beyond. The illustration exudes a sense of chaos and tension, capturing both the bravery and brutality of ancient warfare. The soldiers depicted here are armed with various weapons, their determination evident on their faces as they fight for their respective causes. As an archival piece, this picture offers us a glimpse into a time long past - an era defined by conflict and conquest. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with war throughout history. Ken Welsh's skillful preservation of this vintage image allows us to appreciate its historical value while igniting our imagination about life during those tumultuous times.
