Alexander sarcophagus in the Istanbul Archaeological Museums - short side & the battle of Issus

 Salvete Omnes,



the short sides of the sarcophagus contain two battle scenes - here I will share with you the photos form Wiki Commons of the battle of Issus (eg prof. Nicolas Sekunda's The Persian Army - book published by Osprey Military Publishing)















beautiful sculptures to study, copy and interpret - link to Wiki in my previous post
enjoy

Valete
