This hand-colored halftone reproduction takes us back to ancient Egypt, capturing a momentous encounter between Alexander the Great and the sacred bull at the temple of Apis in Memphis. The 19th-century illustration brings to life a significant event in history, showcasing the fusion of Greek and Egyptian cultures during Alexander's invasion. In this scene, we witness Alexander, an esteemed Macedonian warrior and conqueror, standing before the majestic temple alongside his army.

This meeting symbolizes not only military conquest but also a spiritual connection between two civilizations. The artist skillfully portrays both soldiers and priests surrounding Alexander, emphasizing their respective roles in this historic encounter. The soldier's weapons serve as a reminder of the military might that enabled Alexander's conquests across vast territories. Meanwhile, priests stand by with reverence for their sacred bull deity.
