Alexander the Great large bust
(with broken nose)
This is a cast stoned with antique finish
reproduction of the bust of Alexander the
Great found in the Acropolis of Athens and
now in the Archeological Museum of
Athens. In the museum original the nose
is broken. Our customers have the option
to own this impressive piece of sculpture
as it is in the museum (as pictured here) or
with the restored nose as we have restored
it and are the first to offer it. This bust is a
reduction of the original size.
Alexander III the Great, the King of
Macedonia and conqueror of the Persian
Empire is considered one of the greatest
military geniuses of all times. He was
inspiration for later conquerors such as
Hannibal the Carthaginian, the Romans
Pompey and Caesar, and Napoleon.
Alexander was son of Philip II, King of
Macedonia, and Olympias, the princess of
neighboring Epirus. Having conquered the
entire Persian Empire he made Macedonia
the largest world empire, stretching from
Europe to India. For the next three
centuries the Macedonians ruled most of
this vast area, ending with Cleopatra VII in
30 BC, the last Macedonian ruler of Egypt.
This period of 300 years is known today as
"Hellenistic".
