King Antiochus III showed remarkable heroism at the Battle of the Arius River in 208 BC. Knowing that the fate of the battle depended on holding off the enemy cavalry force long enough for his army to form up, he fought in the thickest of the action with his royal guard.

➡️La Maladie d'Antiochus, ou Antiochus et Stratonice, par Ingres, 1840
Lady Eglé Charlemont sert de modèle pr Stratonice, Mme Ingres pr le médecin et Ingres pr Séleucos.
Antiochos I (325-261 av.JC.), fils de Séleucos I, aime Stratonice, l'épouse de son père, et en tombe malade.
St. Ignatius of Antioch (A.D. 107), preparing for martyrdom: "I look forward with joy to the wild animals held in readiness for me; I will coax them to devour me… I am God's wheat, and I am ground by the wild beasts that I may be found the pure bread of Christ."
The #promptpals theme this week is On the Street Where You Live, so I decided I would draw a memorial statue located in Downtown Antioch. It Is a 7ft bronze sculpture of a Native American Tree Marker that was placed on a Native American trail that passes through Antioch.

Although events had led him to create a great Asian empire, Seleucus had always harboured ambitions for control in the West. Having his capital at Antioch, on the farthest west point of his great domain, was no coincidence.
"The seven brothers, called Machabees, are holy Jewish martyrs who suffered death in the persecution of Antiochus Epiphanes, the impious king of Syria."

Rather pleasing to read that Ingres was so influenced by the fresco of Odysseus & Penelope found in the Macellum in #Pompeii, that he made use of her pose in his represention of Stratonice in the painting ‘The Sickness of Antiochus’.
