EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1743 depicts Cassander, the king of the ancient kingdom of Macedon. Known for his rule from 305 BC until 297 BC, Cassander was also a de facto ruler of southern Greece during this time. The portrait showcases him wearing a distinctive lions head helmet with its paws tied at his neck, symbolizing his power and authority. Created by Pieter Bodart in the early 18th century, this copperplate engraving is part of Henricus Spoors Deorum et Heroum collection. Spoors was a Dutch physician, classical scholar, poet, and writer who published this work in Amsterdam in 1715. The print itself was first published as Favissae utriusque antiquitatis tam Romanae quam Graecae in 1707. The image captures the essence of Cassander's regal stature and presence as he gazes confidently into the distance. It offers us a glimpse into ancient Greece and Macedonia during an era when kings ruled with absolute power. This remarkable piece serves as both historical documentation and artistic expression. It transports us back to a time long gone but still resonates with our fascination for ancient civilizations. As we admire this exquisite print today, we can appreciate the skillful craftsmanship that went into creating it over two centuries ago while reflecting on the enduring legacy left behind by figures like Cassander in shaping our understanding of history.
