EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Court Festival at Susa after the death of Alexander the Great" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by the American School in the 19th century, this print captures a scene from ancient times with remarkable detail and precision. The image showcases an extravagant court festival held in Susa following the untimely demise of Alexander the Great. The artist skillfully depicts a grand gathering filled with opulent costumes, vibrant colors, and an air of both celebration and mourning. It is evident that this event was organized to honor and pay tribute to one of history's most influential figures. As we gaze upon this artwork, our imagination transports us to a time when Alexander III of Macedon reigned as King Alexander the Great. His legacy looms large over this festive occasion, as his subjects gather together amidst lavish decorations and regal architecture. This engraving serves not only as a visual representation but also as an educational tool. Originally created for Moses Coit Tyler's Library of Universal History publication in 1897, it offers viewers valuable insights into ancient customs and traditions surrounding royal ceremonies. Thanks to digital restoration techniques employed on this particular image, its clarity has been enhanced while preserving its historical integrity. This allows us to appreciate every intricate detail within the composition even more profoundly. In collaboration with Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are fortunate enough to witness this extraordinary piece that immortalizes Court Festival at Susa after the death of Alexander the Great
