Alexander at the Sack of Thebes, BC 335 (litho)

Image description: Alexander at the Sack of Thebes, BC 335. It is said that Alexander, when he sacked Thebes, spared only the citadel, the temples, and the house of the poet Pindar. Although this was more than a hundred years after the bard's death the house was occupied by his descendants, and these were among the few Thebans who escaped being sold into slavery by the Macedonian conqueror. Illustration for Hutchinson's History of the Nations (Hutchinson, c.1920). Note: Image has been digitally enhanced to facilitate repro.
