EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Frontispiece to the life of Alexander the Great, a masterpiece created by Antonio Tempesta in the 17th century. The image is rich with symbolism and historical references, transporting us back to ancient Greece. At the left side of the composition stands Bellona, an allegorical figure representing war and battle. Her presence suggests that Alexander's life was marked by conquests and military achievements. On the right side, we see a female personification of abundance, symbolizing prosperity and wealth. This juxtaposition highlights both sides of Alexander's reign - his prowess as a warrior and his ability to bring prosperity to his kingdom. The Coat of Arms of Charles III de Croy, Duke of Croy, is prominently displayed in this artwork. It serves as a reminder that this piece was commissioned for someone closely associated with royalty or nobility during that time period. Antonio Tempesta skillfully captures these elements through intricate details and precise craftsmanship. The use of black and white enhances the dramatic effect while giving it a timeless quality. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print allows us to appreciate not only Tempesta's talent but also delve into Greek mythology and history. It serves as a window into ancient times when gods walked among men, kings conquered nations, and legends were born.
