EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Petra, on March 10th, 1839. Plate 104 from Volume III of The Holy Land showcases the incredible craftsmanship and artistry of Louis Haghe, who engraved this masterpiece. Published in 1849 by David Roberts, a renowned artist of his time, this lithograph measures an impressive 49.9x33 cm. The image transports us to the mesmerizing landscape of Petra, known as the "rose red city". Carved into the rugged mountains are intricate caves and structures that tell stories of ancient civilizations. The Nabatean people left their mark on these rocks with their remarkable carvings. As we gaze upon this print from the comfort of our own space, we can only imagine what it must have been like for those explorers who first set foot in Petra centuries ago. The attention to detail captured by Haghe's engraving is truly awe-inspiring. This particular print belongs to a private collection - The Stapleton Collection - which has graciously made it available for public appreciation. Its historical significance cannot be understated; it offers a glimpse into a world long gone but forever preserved through art. Let us take a moment to appreciate not just the beauty depicted within this image but also the skill and dedication required to create such an exquisite piece of artwork. It serves as a reminder that even though time may pass, great works like these continue to inspire generations after generations.
