I've seen a fantastic painting or drawing somewhere on the web. It shows Alexander dumping the water offered him by his soldiers from a helmet into the sands of the Gedrosian desert. Has anyone seen this picture? I don't know who the artist is or the provenance of the artwork, but it has always impressed me. If you have a link for this pic in JPEG, bitmap, or whatever, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

Indeed, it does help. Thanks much. I'd love to have that hanging on a wall.

Thanks for the effort.

Look for a copy of the January 1968 National Geographic which features an article called In the Footsteps of Aexander the Great. The painting was made for this article, along with several others by the same artist, such as Alexander leaping from his ship brandishing a spear to throw on the shores of Asia. Unfortunately it's only a half-page print, but the magazine is well worth buying anyway.
