Marble Statue of the Macedonian king Alexander III the Great from Magnesia in Lydia
Identical Museum Reproduction
Museum: Archaeological Museum, Istanbul, Turkey
Date: ca. 300 B.C.
Period: Hellenistic
This is an identical reproduction of the famous statue of Alexander the Great now in the Archaeological
Museum in Istanbul. The original came from the ancient city of Magnesia in Anatolia, a city which was once
part of Alexander’s Empire and later ruled by the Macedonian kings of Thrace and Syria, and then by the
Romans. This is truly the most beautiful full size statue of the great conqueror (huge 190 cm or 6.23 feet), a
masterpiece of Hellenistic art. Every serious student of ancient classical art knows about this artwork, and it
is here offered for the first time to the serious collector. Alexander the Great, also known as Alexander III of
Macedon ruled Macedonia from 336 to 323 BC. He was one of the most successful military commanders of
all time and is presumed undefeated in battle. By the time of his death, he had conquered most of the known
world. This sculpture is identical reproduction of the original ancient masterpiece, now housed by the
prominent museum.
The statue is composed from mold made from the original, thus guaranteeing the highest accuracy of
identical reproduction. The reproduction pictured here is made of cast marble, and is extremely heavy and
strong, having a real ancient feel. An ancient patina finishing gives it an additional historical value (you can
choose not to have patina applied and keep it all white if you like). The statue can be displayed both inside
and out, it is weatherproofed.
Item No. S029
Dimensions: height 190 cm (6' 3")
$11,990.00
