EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the magnificent sculpture titled "Alexander Victorious" by Pierre Puget, displayed at the Louvre in Paris. The image showcases the marble masterpiece, standing tall at 110x84x58 cm. This remarkable artwork is a replica of Puget's modello created in 1783 for an equestrian statue of Louis XIV intended for Versailles. It pays homage to Alexander the Great, the legendary Macedonian king who reigned from 356-323 BC. In this portrayal, Alexander is depicted on horseback, clad in armor and wielding a sword. His triumphant posture exudes power and authority as he rides atop his steed with confidence. The horse itself is shown trampling and rearing up, emphasizing their shared victory. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this baroque masterpiece - from Alexander's plumed helmet to his coat of mail. The artist skillfully captures both the strength and grace of these historical figures. This photograph taken by Giraudon in 1926 allows us to appreciate Puget's artistry even more closely. It highlights not only the craftsmanship but also portrays a moment frozen in time that symbolizes triumph and conquest. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back through history to witness Alexander's glory firsthand - a testament to human achievement that continues to inspire awe centuries later.
