"Grand Entrance to the Mosque of the Sultan Hasan" is a renowned lithograph by the Scottish artist David Roberts, featured in his seminal work "Egypt and Nubia, Vol. 3," published in the mid-19th century. David Roberts, born in 1796, was a distinguished painter and lithographer known for his detailed and evocative depictions of architectural and historical sites. His travels to the Middle East, particularly Egypt, between 1838 and 1839, provided the foundation for his most celebrated works, capturing the grandeur and mystique of ancient and medieval structures.

The lithograph "Grand Entrance to the Mosque of the Sultan Hasan" illustrates the imposing and intricately designed entrance of the Mosque-Madrassa of Sultan Hassan in Cairo, Egypt. This mosque, constructed between 1356 and 1363 during the Mamluk Sultanate, is one of the most remarkable examples of Islamic architecture. Roberts' depiction is notable for its meticulous attention to architectural detail and its ability to convey the scale and majesty of the structure. The lithograph showcases the grandiose entrance with its towering minarets, ornate carvings, and the bustling activity of people, providing a vivid snapshot of 19th-century Cairo.

Roberts' work was instrumental in bringing the splendor of Middle Eastern architecture to a European audience, contributing significantly to the Orientalist movement in art. His lithographs were produced by Louis Haghe, a master lithographer, ensuring that the intricate details and atmospheric qualities of Roberts' original sketches were preserved. "Egypt and Nubia" was published in three volumes between 1846 and 1849, and it remains a crucial historical document, offering insights into the architectural heritage and daily life of the regions depicted.

The "Grand Entrance to the Mosque of the Sultan Hasan" stands as a testament to Roberts' skill and dedication as an artist and traveler, capturing the essence of one of Cairo's most iconic landmarks with precision and artistry.
