the Great and the Macedonian conquests. Historical art prints of Alexander
the Great during the Macedonian conquests at the battles of

of the Persian armies and occupation of the cities of Babylon, Susha and
Persepolis are shown in this superb series of historical prints published
by Cranston Fine Arts. Theses art prints are only available from
Cranston Fine Arts and the Military Art Gallery.
Battle of Hydaspes. Porus had a very large army which included 200 war
elephants. The battle saw a charge by the elephants, against the Macedonian
forces, which began to look successful. Seeing this, Porus' Cavalry charged,
against Alexander's cavalry (in this period it was very unusual to have
cavalry contact). The elephant charge began to falter and the battle edged
towards victory for Alexander. Due to his admiration of Porus as a leader,
Alexander granted him honourable terms and built an alliance with him.
His army was not so fortunate, with 3,000 cavalry lost and 20,000 infantry
killed.
The Battle of Guagamela 1st October 331BC, Alexander marched to
Tyre,
then to eastward to cross the Euphrates and the River Tigris. Alexander
was offered by Darius a large quantity of gold (worth over 500million
pounds in today's terms), half his kingdom and the hand of his daughter.
Alexander refused and a moth later the battle took place. Alexander was
outnumbered 4 to 1 but he noticed a weak spot in the Persian line. He led
the charge which was a great success and Darius fled the field. Seeing
this panic spread through the Persian forces, Darius's army crumbled.
Later Darius was murdered by Persian nobles.

Alexander at Arbela, Plain of Gaugamela, Iraq, 331BC by David Pentland.
Flanked by his Companion heavy cavalry, Alexander, King of Macedon, led the charge which broke through the left wing of the Persian army, and forced Darius, the Great King, to flee the battlefield. Persian success against his own left wing forced him to delay his pursuit of the routed troops, but by the end of the day the battle was won, and the heart of the Persian empire lay at his feet.
