David Roberts (24 October 1796 – 25 November 1864) was a Scottish painter. He is especially known for The Holy Land, Syria, Idumea, Arabia, Egypt, and Nubia, a prolific series of detailed lithograph prints of Egypt and the Near East that he produced from sketches he made during long tours of the region (1838–1840). These and his large oil paintings of similar subjects made him a prominent Orientalist painter., Image Size : 502x341 (mm), 19.76x13.43 (Inches), Platemark Size : , Paper Size : 608x433 (mm), 23.94x17.05 (Inches), Coloring: Hand Colored, Medium: Lithograph, Categories: Artists David Roberts Egypt; Views Africa Egypt;.
