EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable map illustrating the campaigns and marches of Alexander the Great, dating back to 1890. The creator remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this ancient artifact. Alexander III of Macedon, also known as Alexander the Great, was a legendary figure who dedicated most of his ruling years to an extraordinary military expedition through Asia and northeast Africa. This ambitious endeavor resulted in the creation of one of the largest empires in history. The map itself is taken from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" specifically Vol. I - Early and Greek History by Edmund Ollier. Published by Cassell and Company Ltd. , London, Paris, and Melbourne in 1890, it serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic craftsmanship. Through intricate engravings on this monochrome illustration, viewers can trace Alexander's conquests across various continents such as Asia and North Africa. It provides insight into his strategic routes while highlighting significant locations that played crucial roles during his campaign. As we gaze upon this antique print today, we are reminded not only of Alexander's empire-building prowess but also of the enduring power that literature and art possess in preserving our rich history for generations to come.
