DescriptionStag hunt mosaic, Pella.jpg |
English: Stag hunt mosaic, Pella, Greece.
Français : Mosaïque de la chasse au cerf, Pella, Grèce.
The figure on the right is possibly Alexander the Great due to the date of the mosaic along with the depicted upsweep of his centrally-parted hair (anastole); the figure on the left wielding a double-edged axe (associated with Hephaistos) is perhaps Hephaestion, one of Alexander's loyal companions. For further infromation, see Chugg, Andrew (2006). Alexander's Lovers. Raleigh, N.C.: Lulu. ISBN 978-1-4116-9960-1, pp 78-79. |
