"Grand Entrance to the Temple of Luxor, from Egypt and Nubia, Vol.1" is a renowned lithograph created by the Scottish artist David Roberts in the mid-19th century. This artwork is part of Roberts' larger collection titled "Egypt and Nubia," which was published between 1846 and 1849. The collection comprises a series of detailed lithographs that capture the architectural grandeur and historical significance of various ancient sites in Egypt and Nubia.

David Roberts, born in 1796, was a prominent painter and lithographer known for his detailed and evocative depictions of exotic locales. His journey to the Middle East in 1838-1839 provided the inspiration for his most famous works. During his travels, Roberts meticulously sketched numerous ancient monuments, temples, and landscapes, which he later transformed into lithographs with the help of lithographer Louis Haghe. These works were highly acclaimed for their accuracy and artistic quality, contributing significantly to Western understanding and appreciation of Middle Eastern antiquities.

The "Grand Entrance to the Temple of Luxor" lithograph specifically showcases the monumental entrance of the Luxor Temple, an ancient Egyptian temple complex located on the east bank of the Nile River in the city of Luxor (ancient Thebes). The temple, primarily dedicated to the god Amun, was a focal point of religious and political life in ancient Egypt. Roberts' depiction captures the imposing pylon gateway, adorned with intricate carvings and flanked by massive statues of pharaohs, conveying the grandeur and historical importance of the site.

Roberts' work is not only an artistic achievement but also an important historical document. His lithographs provide valuable visual records of these ancient structures before the advent of modern photography and before some of the sites suffered further deterioration. The "Grand Entrance to the Temple of Luxor" remains a significant piece within Roberts' oeuvre, reflecting both his artistic skill and his dedication to documenting the ancient world.
