EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating oil painting "Alexander the Great giving Campaspe to Apelles" by Charles Meynier depicts a poignant moment in ancient history. The artwork, measuring 115x145 cm, is housed in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Rennes, France. In this scene from antiquity, Alexander the Great, king of Macedonia and conqueror of vast lands, is seen graciously bestowing his beloved concubine Campaspe upon the renowned painter Apelles de Cos. The inspiration for this act of generosity stems from Alexander's realization that Apelles has fallen deeply in love with Campaspe after capturing her beauty on canvas. The composition portrays three individuals: Alexander himself, Campaspe exuding femininity and gracefulness, and Apelles displaying a mix of admiration and longing. Their expressions convey complex emotions intertwined with love and sacrifice. This masterpiece transports viewers back to ancient Greece—a time when artistry flourished alongside great military conquests. Through vibrant colors and meticulous brushstrokes, Meynier brings to life an era filled with passion and intrigue. The painting serves as a testament to the enduring power of love amidst political power struggles. It also highlights the profound impact that art can have on both artist and patron alike. As we gaze upon this remarkable print captured by Photo Josse in the 19th century, let us be reminded of our shared human experiences—of love found and lost—and marvel at how such emotions transcend time itself.
