Alexander sensitive?This young man, with his smooth cheeks, sensitive face and long, centrally parted hair, is instantly recognisable as Alexander the Great, the fourth-century BCE Macedonian king who by the time he died, aged 32, had conquered most of the known world. The statue was made in Egypt, around two hundred years after Alexander’s death, and it demonstrates well the importance that his successors attached to the great man’s image.
