EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century depicts a momentous meeting between Alexander the Great and the High Priest. The black and white illustration, created by an English School artist, transports us back to antiquity as we witness this historic encounter. The scene is set in the Middle East, amidst a biblical landscape that exudes ancientness. Alexander III of Macedon, also known as Alexander the Great, stands tall and regal in his kingly attire. His presence commands attention as he engages with the High Priest. The engraving captures a sense of reverence and importance surrounding this meeting. It hints at a significant exchange of ideas or perhaps even divine guidance sought by both parties involved. The detail and precision in this artwork showcase the talent of its creator. As we gaze upon this print, it becomes evident that it was inspired by "The Land of the Bible" a book published around 1880 which delved into sacred heroes and stories from biblical times. This particular illustration serves as an evocative visual representation within its pages. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from history for us to admire today through their Fine Art Finder collection. Its inclusion among other notable works allows us to appreciate not only its artistic merit but also its historical significance.
