EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable roundel bearing the profile portrait of none other than Alexander the Great, surrounded by an exquisite garland of foliage. Created in Florence around 1480, this terracotta masterpiece with its polychrome glaze is truly a sight to behold. Crafted by the talented duo of Andrea del Verrocchio and Andrea della Robbia, this bas relief captures the essence and grandeur of Alexander the Great, also known as Scipio Africanus. The intricate details on his armor and helmet are beautifully depicted, while a fierce dragon coils itself beneath him. A striking medusa head adorns his chestplate, adding an element of mythological allure. The addition of a lush garland composed of various botanical elements further enhances the overall composition. Fruits dangle delicately amidst leaves and flowers, creating a sense of abundance and natural beauty. Housed in Vienna's Kunsthistorisches Museum in Austria, this roundel serves as a testament to both Renaissance artistry and scientific curiosity. It seamlessly combines elements from history, mythology, botany, and natural history into one harmonious piece. As you gaze upon this extraordinary work captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, allow yourself to be transported back in time to witness the magnificence that was Alexander the Great. Let your imagination wander through ancient Macedonia as you appreciate every intricate detail meticulously crafted by these masterful Italian artists.
