EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts the historical moment when Alexander the Great laid siege to Tyre in 332 BC. The print, created by Hermann Vogel, showcases the intensity and grandeur of this ancient battle. In this scene, we witness the mighty conqueror himself leading his Macedonian army against the fortified city of Tyre. With determination etched on his face, Alexander strategically plans his next move as he confronts the powerful Persian forces within its walls. The image beautifully captures the chaos and violence of warfare during that era. Soldiers clash with their adversaries, swords raised high in a fierce struggle for dominance. The Phoenician city becomes a battleground where Greek and Persian cultures collide. Alexander's ambition to expand his empire is palpable as he fights alongside his troops, demonstrating both leadership and courage. His royal status is evident through his regal attire and commanding presence amidst the chaos. This engraving not only serves as a visual representation of an important historical event but also highlights Alexander's military genius and relentless pursuit of conquest. It transports us back in time to witness firsthand one of history's most significant battles – a testament to human resilience and ambition.
