"Apelles Preparing To Paint Campaspe" is a historical painting by the Flemish artist Nicolas Vleughels, created in the early 18th century. This artwork depicts the legendary moment from ancient history when Apelles, the renowned painter of antiquity, is about to paint Campaspe, the mistress of Alexander the Great. According to Pliny the Elder's account, Alexander was so impressed by the beauty of the portrait that he gifted Campaspe to Apelles, recognizing the deep affection that had developed between the artist and his subject during the painting process.

Nicolas Vleughels (1668–1737) was a Baroque painter who spent a significant part of his career in Rome, where he became the director of the French Academy in Rome in 1724. His works often reflect the influence of the classical tradition and the Italian masters, and this painting is no exception. It showcases Vleughels' skill in composition, his delicate handling of light and shadow, and his ability to convey complex emotions through the expressions and poses of his figures.

The painting serves as a testament to the themes of love, beauty, and sacrifice, and it also reflects the artist's reverence for the classical past and its stories. "Apelles Preparing To Paint Campaspe" is not only an homage to the legendary figures of Apelles and Campaspe but also an example of the enduring influence of classical narratives on the arts through the centuries. The artwork is significant for its historical subject matter, its execution, and its place within the oeuvre of Nicolas Vleughels, contributing to the understanding of European art in the early 18th century.
