EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Persian Emperor Artaxerxes III Ochus killing the sacred Apis bull of the Egyptians" transports us back to ancient times. Created by Hermann Vogel in 1880, this print captures a pivotal moment in history. In this scene, we witness the powerful Persian Emperor Artaxerxes III Ochus mounted on his horse, riding with determination and purpose. He brandishes his weapon as he prepares to strike down the revered Apis bull of the Egyptians. The tension is palpable as both man and beast face off against each other. The significance of this event cannot be overstated. It symbolizes not only a conquest but also a clash between two great civilizations - Egypt and Persia. As an emperor of the Achaemenid Empire, Artaxerxes III Ochus sought to assert his dominance over Egypt by desecrating their most sacred animal. The detailed engravings bring out every nuance of emotion on both sides: fear and defiance in the eyes of the bull, determination and triumph on Artaxerxes' face. This artwork serves as a reminder that throughout history, power struggles have often resulted in cultural clashes and religious conflicts. Vogel's masterful technique combined with historical accuracy makes this print an invaluable piece for those fascinated by ancient civilizations or interested in exploring humanity's complex relationship with power and religion.
