About Entry Of Alexander Into Babylon Charles Le Brun
Alexander, who had defeated Darius III of Persia at the Battle of Issus (333 BC), foresaw another battle to take Babylon. He was surprised to see the gates of the city open to give him a hero's welcome. Le Brun depicts the moment where Alexander, holding a scepter topped by Victory in his left hand, advances in a chariot drawn by two elephants captured from Darius' army. The hero, crowned with laurel leaves, is preceded by Persian trumpeters. Next to him three men directed by a mounted warrior Hephaestion, Alexander's friend carry a large golden vase. In the background one can see the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. In the foreground to the left, a statue of Semiramis.
