"A beautifully presented volume. . . . Stewart's catalogue of Alexandrine
iconography is virtually exhaustive, his exegesis balanced and cogent, and
his eruditions vast, making this book a classic of Alexander-scholarship."--Classical
Review
"There is no more evocative Greek portrait type than that of Alexander
the Great. By exploring its potency and development in antiquity . . .
Stewart has made an impressive demonstration of the value of this broader
approach to a traditional art-historical subject."--Sir John Boardman,
Ashmolean Museum
