"Ascent to the Summit of Sinai, February 20th 1839, plate 115 from Volume III of The Holy Land" is a notable work of art engraved by Louis Haghe and published in 1849 by David Roberts. This piece is part of a larger collection titled "The Holy Land, Syria, Idumea, Arabia, Egypt, and Nubia," which is a comprehensive series of lithographs that document the artist's travels through the Middle East. David Roberts, a Scottish painter, embarked on a journey to the region in 1838-1839, capturing the landscapes, architecture, and daily life of the areas he visited. His works are considered some of the most detailed and accurate depictions of the Middle East during the 19th century.

Louis Haghe, a Belgian lithographer, was renowned for his skill in translating Roberts' detailed sketches into lithographs. His engravings are celebrated for their precision and ability to convey the atmosphere and grandeur of the original scenes. The collaboration between Roberts and Haghe resulted in a series of prints that were both artistic and documentary in nature, providing a visual record of places that were, at the time, largely unknown to the Western world.

The specific plate, "Ascent to the Summit of Sinai," captures a moment from Roberts' ascent of Mount Sinai, a site of immense historical and religious significance. The mountain is traditionally identified as the location where Moses received the Ten Commandments, making it a pilgrimage site for Jews, Christians, and Muslims alike. Roberts' depiction of the ascent is not only a testament to his artistic skill but also to his adventurous spirit and dedication to capturing the essence of the places he visited.

The publication of "The Holy Land" in 1849 brought Roberts' works to a wider audience, contributing significantly to Western perceptions of the Middle East. The series remains a valuable resource for historians, art enthusiasts, and scholars of Middle Eastern studies, offering a glimpse into the region's past through the eyes of a 19th-century traveler and artist.
