Alexander the Great (2002, 34 x 42 in) Click here for larger image
The historical record of Alexander the great describes a young man conquering country after country until he ran out of armies to battle against. It is said then, that he wept because he had no more worlds to conquer. After having spread Greek culture throughout the known world, he apparently died in debauchery. In the end he laid down his weapons and died as the frailest of humans. Genghis Kahn is said to have died similarly, although at a more advanced age.
