I only could draw on my ipad in the last couple of days to calm my nerves. Hereโ€™s #Bagoas doing his daily routine, further proving heโ€™s a high-maintenance Persian cat. Only brushing his hair to perfection takes half an hour. #art #AncientPersia #Persia

2355 years ago, on the 1st of October 331 BCE, the Army of Macedon under Alexander the Great defeated the Persian Army under King Darius III in the Battle of Gaugamela. It is seen as the final blow to the Persian Empire. #otd #history #persia #alexanderthegreat ๐Ÿ—ƒ๏ธ
Alexander Mosaic, House of the Faun, Pompeii photographed by Berthold Werner, Naples National Archaeological Museum, May 2013
The mosaic represents a battle in which Alexander of Macedonia charges the Persian king Darius III, the commander-in-chief of the Persian army. Alexander fought Darius III in a series of battles over control of the Persian Empire. Alexander defeated Darius at the Battle of Issus and again two years later at the Battle of Gaugamela. The work is traditionally believed to show the Battle of Issus.
The battle scene comprises over 50 men. It stands out among ancient works of art because it represents a large group of soldiers, depicts each figure with meticulous attention to detail, expertly captures the expressions that appear on the warriors' faces, and uses muted colors.The mosaic features many figures in a very large space. The two most distinguished and recognizable figures are Alexander and Darius III.
