EDITORS COMMENTS
With an effort he looked at them as they passed, illustration from The Story of Greece, 1930s (colour litho) by Walter Crane. This print takes us back in time to the ancient world, where a soldier stands amidst a scene of conflict and turmoil. Dressed in intricate costumes and armed with weapons, these warriors represent the clash between two great civilizations – Greece and Persia. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost feel the tension in the air. The soldier's weary expression hints at the toll that war has taken on him. Perhaps he is contemplating his own mortality or mourning fallen comrades lost to battle. The setting adds another layer of intrigue to this composition. A tent stands tall against a backdrop of rolling hills and the mighty Euphrates River flows nearby. These elements transport us to a specific moment in history when Alexander the Great led his armies across vast lands, leaving behind tales of conquest and triumph. This print serves as a powerful reminder of our shared human history – one filled with both glory and tragedy. It invites us to reflect on how conflicts shape societies and individuals alike, while also appreciating the artistic mastery displayed by Walter Crane. Displayed proudly within private collections today, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its vivid depiction of ancient warfare.
