Uploader's Comments

Bronze relief by David Rhind. Alexander, seated on his throne, is shown receiving visitors at court, though the Monument gives no indication of who they are. He is probably being introduced to Yolande, his young second wife. It seems it was his eagerness to visit her at Kinghorn that caused him to ignore his courtiers' advice not to travel beyond Inverkeithing on a wild and stormy night.
