The Wedding of Alexander and RoxaneIl Sodoma

En este fresco (1516–1519), Il Sodoma representa el matrimonio de Alejandro Magno y Roxana, basado en el relato de Luciano sobre la pintura perdida de Eeción. Alejandro corona a Roxana, mientras figuras de Eros rodean juguetonamente a la novia, simbolizando el amor y la unión. La escena refleja la fascinación del Renacimiento por la historia clásica y las alianzas políticas.
