Alexander the Great on Bucephalus

Alexander the Great on Bucephalus




‎This nineteenth-century engraving shows Alexander the Great (356-323 B.C.) astride his famous horse Bucephalus. The horse, born a year after Alexander, was considered too wild to ride until the 13-year old Alexander broke him. King and horse battled Alexander’s enemies together from Alexander’s accession to the Macedonian throne in 336 B.C. until Bucephalus was killed at the Battle of the Hydaspes in what is now Pakistan in 326 B.C.
