**Macedonian Phalanx Reinforced by Elephants: A Fierce Battlefield Formation**
This stunning chromolithograph print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Macedonian phalanx reinforced by elephants, circa 4th century BC. The image is part of a series on military battlefield formations and offers a unique glimpse into ancient warfare.
In this vivid depiction, rows of heavily armed hoplites form the iconic phalanx formation, their shields locked together to create an impenetrable wall. Meanwhile, majestic elephants - symbols of power and strength - march alongside these formidable warriors. The contrast between the sleek armor-clad soldiers and the lumbering giants is striking.
The Macedonian phalanx was renowned for its discipline and cohesion on the battlefield, while elephants were valued for their brute force and ability to intimidate enemies. This potent combination would have been a daunting sight for ancient foes.
This chromolithograph print, created in the early 20th century by European School artists, is an exquisite representation of this historic moment. Its rich colors and detailed rendering bring the scene to life, making it a captivating addition to any collection or educational resource.
