"Abyssinian Slaves Resting at Korti, Nubia, from Egypt and Nubia, Vol.1" is a notable artwork by the Scottish artist David Roberts (1796–1864), renowned for his detailed lithographs and paintings that capture the essence of the Middle East and North Africa. This particular work is part of Roberts' extensive project, "Egypt and Nubia," which was published in three volumes between 1842 and 1849. The project was a culmination of Roberts' journey through the region in 1838-1839, during which he meticulously documented the landscapes, architecture, and people he encountered, offering a comprehensive visual record of Egypt and Nubia during the 19th century.

The artwork depicts a group of Abyssinian slaves taking a moment of rest at Korti, a location in Nubia, which is in present-day Sudan. The scene is set against the backdrop of the stark Nubian landscape, characterized by its arid terrain and the Nile River, which provided a lifeline for the region's inhabitants. Roberts' attention to detail not only captures the physical exhaustion and resilience of the slaves but also provides insight into the socio-economic conditions of the time, including the prevalent slave trade in the region.

Roberts' work is celebrated for its accuracy, artistic quality, and the light it sheds on the historical and cultural contexts of the places he visited. "Abyssinian Slaves Resting at Korti, Nubia" is no exception, offering a poignant glimpse into the lives of individuals during a specific moment in history. The lithograph, like others in the "Egypt and Nubia" series, was based on Roberts' original sketches and was executed by the skilled lithographer Louis Haghe, whose collaboration with Roberts helped bring the artist's visions to a wider audience. This artwork, along with the rest of the series, played a crucial role in shaping Western perceptions of the Middle East and North Africa during the 19th century, making it an important piece in the study of Orientalist art.
