Descripción
Edizione: from one of the most desirable of all travel and colourplate books. an especially pretty image, the ruins beautifully rendered with colorfully dressed people scattered about them. the island of bigge, adjacent to philae, was part of the site of the tomb of osiris. only the priests from philae were permited to even set foot on the island, let along enter the temples.<br> we have a good number of impressive images from the standard folio edition of this classic work available for purchase. as well as many views of egypt we also have available, views of nubia, petra, sinai, the jordan, tyre, sidon and baalbec. please inquire for further details.<br> in the course of two and a half months in 1838, traveling some 800 miles south from cairo, roberts recorded the monumental temple sites along the nile in more than a hundred sketches. as the first british artist to sketch the monuments of ancient egypt, set on "plains so vast.that, until you come near them, you have no idea of their magnificence," roberts was well aware of the stir his drawings would create in london. according to john ruskin, writing in praeterita, roberts's drawings "were the first studies ever made conscientiously by an english painter, not to exhibit his own skill, but to give true portraiture of scenes of historical and religious interest."
