EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Great Sphinx and Pyramids at Giza" as captured by the talented artist David Roberts in 1838-1839. Originally a scene painter at Drury Lane Theatre in London, Roberts embarked on a journey to Egypt where he dedicated his time to painting and drawing. The result of his artistic exploration is this stunning depiction of one of the world's most iconic archaeological sites. The Great Sphinx, believed to have originated before 2500 BC, stands tall at an impressive height of 20 meters with a length spanning approximately 73 meters. Set against the backdrop of the Egyptian desert, this monumental sculpture exudes an aura of mystery and grandeur that has fascinated people for centuries. Roberts' attention to detail and use of vibrant colors bring life to this ancient landscape. The pyramids rise majestically beside the Sphinx, serving as eternal tombs for pharaohs from ancient Egypt. This print not only captures their architectural magnificence but also transports viewers back in time, allowing them to imagine what life was like during that era. Housed within the prestigious Victoria and Albert Museum in London, this artwork serves as a testament to both Roberts' talent as an artist and the enduring allure of Egyptian history and mythology. It invites us to marvel at these awe-inspiring structures while contemplating our place within the vast tapestry of human civilization.
