EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white drawing, created by the Master of the Strassburg Chronicle in 1492, presents a unique and intriguing fusion of ancient Greek and Roman history. The central figures are Hector of Troy, Alexander III of Macedonia (Alexander the Great), and Gaius Julius Caesar. Hector, the legendary Trojan warrior, is depicted in full armor, his face etched with determination and resolve. To his right stands Alexander the Great, the legendary King of Macedonia, clad in ornate armor and holding a blade aloft. To his left, Julius Caesar, the renowned Roman general and statesman, is shown with a serious expression and a cloak draped over his shoulder. The drawing's intricacy and attention to detail are evident in the heraldic elements adorning the figures' coats of arms. Hector's shield bears the blazon of Troy, while Alexander's escutcheon showcases the star of Macedonia. Caesar's coat of arms is adorned with a bald eagle, a symbol of Rome. The drawing's use of leadpoint and black chalk on laid paper adds to its antique charm, transporting us back to a time when these legendary figures ruled their respective countries and shaped the course of history. This artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the 15th century, a time when the arts flourished and the lines between Greece, Macedonia, and Rome blurred. It is a must-see for anyone interested in ancient history, military strategy, or the evolution of heraldic art.
