EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the legendary philosopher Aristotle tutoring none other than Alexander the Great himself. Dating back to around 340 B. C. , this engraving from the 19th century offers a glimpse into an ancient world where knowledge and power intersected. In this scene, we witness Aristotle fulfilling his role as a teacher and mentor to one of history's most influential figures. The great emperor Alexander, known for his military conquests and intellectual curiosity, eagerly absorbs the wisdom imparted by his esteemed tutor. Their interaction symbolizes the profound impact that education can have on shaping leaders. The image beautifully portrays both men engrossed in deep conversation, their expressions reflecting intense concentration and mutual respect. As Aristotle imparts his philosophical teachings upon his young pupil, it becomes evident that this encounter will shape not only Alexander's destiny but also influence future generations. Through this engraving, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by these two remarkable individuals. It serves as a testament to their contributions towards advancing knowledge and understanding within Hellenic society. Thanks to The Granger Collection's preservation efforts, we are able to appreciate this historical masterpiece today. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it is a window into an era where philosophy met empire-building—a true treasure for any admirer of ancient civilizations or those seeking inspiration from extraordinary minds of antiquity.
