This is a classic 1838 watercolor work by renowned Scottish landscape painter David Roberts, depicting Cleopatra's Needle obelisk at Egypt's Alexandria port. The granite obelisk carved with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs stands on coastal sand, surrounded by ancient fortress ruins. Several locals in traditional costumes rest in the foreground, with faint ships on the distant sea, full of profound ancient historical atmosphere.
