This is a classic watercolor landscape created by British artist David Roberts in 1838. It depicts the view overlooking from ancient Egyptian ruins in Luxor, Egypt. The foreground features ancient stone railings carved with hieroglyphs, the middle ground shows the winding Nile with traditional Arab sailboats, camps and camel caravans on the bank, and distant Libyan desert mountains bathed in warm golden sunlight. It is a representative Orientalist travel painting showing the vast style of Egypt's Nile Valley in the 19th century.
