EDITORS COMMENTS
This fresco, titled "The Marriage of Alexander and Roxana" transports us back to the Renaissance period in Rome. Painted by Giovanni Antonio Bazzi, also known as Sodoma, this artwork measures an impressive 370x660 cm and can be found at the Villa Farnesina. The scene depicts a significant moment in history: the union between Alexander the Great, King of Macedon, and his first wife, Roxana. The Bactrian princess stands elegantly beside her powerful husband as they exchange vows. Their love story unfolds before our eyes through Sodoma's skilled brushstrokes. Intricate details bring life to this historical event. The artist captures every emotion on their faces – from joy and excitement to anticipation for their future together. The fresco showcases the grandeur of classical architecture with a balustrade framing the couple against a backdrop of lush greenery. Cherubs or putti surround them, symbolizing divine blessings upon their marriage. This romantic gesture adds an ethereal touch to an already enchanting composition. "The Marriage of Alexander and Roxana" is not just a painting; it is a window into ancient times when conquerors like Alexander shaped history through love and alliances. It reminds us that even great leaders have personal lives filled with passion and commitment. Vincenzo Pirozzi's print beautifully preserves this masterpiece for generations to come, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its beauty without boundaries or limitations
