"Temple At Esneh" is a renowned lithograph created by the Scottish artist David Roberts in the mid-19th century. David Roberts, born in 1796, was a prolific painter and lithographer known for his detailed and evocative depictions of architectural and historical sites, particularly in the Middle East and North Africa. His works are celebrated for their accuracy, artistic merit, and the light they shed on ancient civilizations.

The lithograph "Temple At Esneh" is part of Roberts' extensive series of works that document his travels in Egypt and the Near East. These travels took place between 1838 and 1839, during which Roberts meticulously sketched numerous ancient monuments and landscapes. His journey was part of a broader 19th-century European fascination with Egyptology and the rediscovery of ancient cultures.

Esneh, also known as Esna, is a town located on the west bank of the Nile River in Upper Egypt. The Temple of Esneh, dedicated to the god Khnum, is one of the key historical sites in the town. The temple's construction dates back to the Ptolemaic and Roman periods, and it is noted for its well-preserved columns and intricate hieroglyphic inscriptions.

Roberts' lithograph captures the grandeur and architectural splendor of the Temple of Esneh. His work is characterized by a high level of detail and a keen eye for the interplay of light and shadow, which brings the ancient structure to life. The lithograph not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also as a valuable historical document, providing insights into the temple's condition and appearance in the 19th century.

The publication of Roberts' lithographs, including "Temple At Esneh," in the volumes "The Holy Land, Syria, Idumea, Arabia, Egypt, and Nubia" between 1842 and 1849, brought widespread acclaim and significantly contributed to Western knowledge and appreciation of Middle Eastern antiquities. These works remain highly regarded in both artistic and academic circles for their contribution to the visual documentation of historical sites.
