Here's a short two page paper that should offer hints on how to get started on writing difficult papers.

            The Battle of Issus which is also known as the Alexander Mosaic is an oil painting which was completed by Albrecht Altdorfer whom was a German painter. The painting consists of Atldorfer’s vision of the battle for when Alexander the Great won a battle of over Darius the Third of Persia which occurred in 333 B.C.  This great battle assisted Alexander the Great in obtaining crucial territory for his war crusade in opposition to the Persia Empire. Through this battle victory, Alexander the Great was able to unite Babylon, Egypt and Greece and he was able to produce the largest kingdom in the Western ancient realm. Alexander the Great was also able to effectively to spread the concept of Hellenism all over Northern Africa and the rest of Europe during that time period. Hellenism generally indicates the Greek culture and their language during the time of Alexander the Great when the country of Greece and the Greek distinctiveness were altered by other foreign fundamentals. Hellenism also refers to the period in history which begins from the death of Alexander the Great which occurred in 323 B.C.E. and extends to the death of Cleopatra and the merging Egypt into the Roman Empire in the year 30 B.C.E. The German artist Albrecht Atldorfer constructed this master piece in the year 1529. This is an oil painting on panel. The painting is currently located in the art museum called Alte Pinakothek which is located in Munich, Germany.

            Another well known piece of art is the Bayeux Tapestry. This textile portrays the Norman occupation and conquest of England in the year of 1066. This battled was carried out by Harold, Earl of Wessex and eventual King of England and also William, the Duke of Normandy. The Bayeux Tapestry is quite a large  tapestry that details the events during the years 1064-1066 which lead up to the Battle of Hastings. The concluding victory of Normandy over England resulted in Harold becoming the King of England.     The Bayeux Tapestry currently hangs in the Museum of Bayeux Tapestry is Bayeux, Normandy, in the country of France. The Bayeux Tapestry is considered to be one of greatest achievements of the Norman Romanesque Style. Romanesque art is considered to be art of Europe from around 1000 A.D. until it gave rise to the more Gothic Style of art in France which was around the 13^th century or so; it generally depended upon the region.

            The one similar aspect that these two pieces of art share is that they depict famous battles. The first piece which is the Battle of Issus which depicts the victory of Alexander the Great against Darius III and assisted in the spreading Hellenism through Northern Africa and the rest of Europe. The one big notable difference these two pieces of art is that the Battle of Issus is an actual painting while the Bayeux Tapestry is actually embroidered work . The Bayeux Tapestry consists of linen fabric and is also there are also more than eight colors embroidered in yarn made of wool. The Bayeux Tapestry is also larger than the Battle of Issus which is five feet by four feet. The Bayeux Tapestry is nearly 235 feet long and nearly 21 inches high. The Bayeux Tapestry was originally thought to be nearly 10 feet or 3m long but the final scenes were torn apart from it probably hundreds of years ago.
