Leonaert Bramer's *Uitleg van de scènes uit het leven van Alexander de Grote* (c. 1655-1665) is a manuscript housed in the Rijksmuseum. The handwritten text, likely in Dutch, details scenes from the life of Alexander the Great. This work showcases the artist’s interest in historical narratives and exemplifies the popular interest in the life of the Macedonian king during the 17th century. The manuscript's small size suggests it may have been a personal study or a gift for a patron.
