Hi Jan,jan wrote:I have found a great book which contains the most wonderful illustrations of Charles LeBrun's paintings of Alexander the Great. The copy that the editor and author include is just magnificent. The four major paintings that LeBrun accomplished are in vibrant color but along with those paintings include other black and white sketches well worth studying. I was impressed with how diligent LeBrun is in making certain that he uses historical accuracy for his detailed study, even though done early in his career. This is a great book. All lovers of Alexander should own it.

Strange things happen all the while in electronic land around me, but that post just plainly disappeared.
Good point!Worse than that was the idea that Napoleon might even have considered the idea of being buried in that tomb himself! No wonder they keep Alexander well hidden!
