EDITORS COMMENTS
This bronze sculpture depicts the legendary Alexander the Great, astride his faithful steed Bucephalus. Crafted by the skilled hands of Lysippos, a renowned Greek sculptor from Sicyone, this masterpiece now resides in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples. Alexander's commanding presence is beautifully captured as he sits tall and proud upon his majestic horse. The intricate details of their figures showcase both strength and grace, highlighting their symbiotic bond. Bucephalus, with its powerful muscles and flowing mane, exudes an aura of loyalty and trust towards its rider. As one gazes at this artwork, it is impossible not to be transported back in time to an era when Alexander conquered vast lands and established one of history's greatest empires. This sculpture serves as a testament to his military prowess and leadership skills that earned him the title "the Great". The artist Luisa Ricciarini skillfully captures every nuance of this ancient masterpiece through her lens. Her photograph allows us to appreciate not only the artistry involved but also offers a glimpse into history itself. This print serves as a reminder of Alexander's enduring legacy and his profound impact on civilization. It stands as a tribute to both man and beast – two extraordinary beings forever intertwined in history's annals.
