Created in the 16th century by Belgian School artisans in Brussels, this masterpiece now resides in Musei di Strada Nuova, Palazzo Rosso, Genova, Liguria, Italy. The tapestry beautifully captures the essence of ancient Greek history and human achievement. King Alexander's determination and audacity are palpable as he fearlessly confronts the intricate knot that had baffled many before him.
