King Phillip II of Macedon by Joan Francesc Oliveras Pallerols. Master of Greece, brilliant militarist, and father of Alexander the Great. If you are interested in learning more about this period of time, I recommended Nicholas Guild’s novel ‘The Macedonian’ as well as our fellow podcast ‘The Hellenistic age.’ Both are brilliant #phillipii #macedon #macedonia #alexander #alexanderthegreat #hellenistic #hellenic #history #johnhowe #alanleeart #alanleeart #greece #ancientgreece #ancientcivilization #phalanx #phalanxarmy #lotr #lotrmemes #ptolemy #ancientegypt #ancient #art #armor #helm #calvary #companion #royalty #king #thebes #master #lord https://www.instagram.com/p/CYPFOCArUep/?utm_medium=tumblr

Madrid Tour Day 2: El Escorial and Valley of the Fallen. In short, today was Spanish history galore for me! Got to see the tomb and grave my two favourite Spanish history personalities: Philip II and Francisco Franco. Both separated by more than 300 years, but still just as fascinating. #valleyofthefallen #valledeloscaidos #franciscofranco #phillipii #elescorial #monumentos #madrid #spain #christiantravelblogger #lifestyleblogger #christianlifestyleblogger #disciple #kingdomofgod #matthew28 #allnations #beautiful #history #spanishcivilwar #historian #nclpostgrad (at Valle de los Caídos)
