EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical moment, depicting the submission of Medes princes to Cyrus II the Great, founder of the Persian Empire. The artwork is a Liebig chromolithography from the 19th century, showcasing an unknown artist's talent in vivid colors and intricate details. In this scene, we witness Cyrus II on horseback, surrounded by his victorious army. The Medes princes bow before him in acknowledgment of his power and authority. The image exudes strength and dominance as Cyrus II asserts his control over conquered lands. The horses depicted in the artwork symbolize both military prowess and nobility. They stand tall and proud alongside their riders, reflecting their importance in ancient warfare. These majestic creatures played a crucial role in shaping history during this era. Through this chromolithography, we are transported back to the 6th century BC when empires were forged through conquests and alliances. It serves as a reminder of the rich tapestry of human history that has shaped our world today. Leonard de Selva's photograph beautifully captures every detail of this remarkable artwork while preserving its historical significance for future generations to appreciate. This piece not only celebrates great conquerors like Cyrus II but also highlights the artistic mastery behind such creations.
