EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Temple Dendur in Nubia, beautifully captured through a combination of watercolor and graphite. Created by the talented artist David Roberts during his second visit to Egypt in 1848, this artwork transports us to the upper reaches of the Nile. Roberts, a British artist hailing from Stockbridge, Scotland, was renowned for his intricate drawings and meticulous attention to detail. His first trip to Egypt in 1838 inspired him to embark on a journey that would forever shape his artistic career. During his travels, he supervised the publication of lithographs based on his sketches, collaborating with Louis Haghe. The Temple Dendur holds a special place among Roberts' collection as it symbolizes both his passion for ancient architecture and dedication to exploring new horizons. This particular piece was created on beige wove paper and measures an impressive 7 11/16 x 10 1/2 inches (195 x 267 cm). Through this photo print, we are transported back in time as we witness Roberts' return to gather material for future works. The blend of watercolor and graphite brings out the temple's grandeur against its natural surroundings. It serves as a testament not only to Roberts' artistic prowess but also to our enduring fascination with ancient civilizations and their architectural marvels.
