EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable historical artifact, the "Ms 1335 f. 219 Dissection of the body of Alexander the Great". Created by the French School in the 15th century, this vellum manuscript is housed in the Bibliotheque Municipale in Reims, France. The image captures a pivotal moment as physicians and doctors dissected the legendary body of Alexander the Great. This scene is derived from Quintus Curtius Rufus' biography of Alexandre le Grand, translated by Vasque de Lucene, a Portuguese humanist scholar at Charles the Bold's Burgundian court. Commissioned around 1468 by Charles himself, this lavishly decorated manuscript offers an exquisite visual representation of this significant event.
