This is a classic 1838 watercolor work by renowned Scottish landscape painter David Roberts, depicting the ancient Egyptian temple ruins on Biga Island, Egypt. Weathered stone arch and broken lotus capital columns stand on warm sandy ground, local people in traditional Arabian costumes rest beside the relics. The soft warm tone carries profound historical sense, representing the typical orientalist travel painting style of the 19th century.
