EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense Battle between Alexander and Porus, which took place in 326 BC. Painted by Nicolaes Berchem during the mid to late 17th century, this artwork vividly portrays the clash of forces between Alexander the Great and Indian rajah Porus on the banks of River Hydaspes (now known as River Jhelum in Pakistan). In this historic encounter, Porus held a significant advantage with his battle elephants, an unfamiliar sight for the Greeks. However, despite facing these formidable creatures, Alexander emerged victorious from this chaotic scene. The artist skillfully depicts the chaos and confusion that ensued during this epic confrontation. The vibrant colors add to the dramatic atmosphere surrounding these brave warriors from both sides. The horses gallop fiercely amidst a backdrop of war-torn landscapes. This image not only showcases a pivotal moment in history but also highlights Alexander's military prowess and strategic brilliance. It serves as a testament to his triumph over adversity and his relentless pursuit of conquest. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to ancient times when kingdoms clashed on distant lands. It reminds us of humanity's enduring fascination with warfare and our constant quest for power and dominance.
