Painting Description
"The Holy Land And Egypt: Mosque Of Sultanhassan From The Great Square Of The Rumeyleh" is a captivating lithograph created by the renowned Scottish artist David Roberts in the mid-19th century. David Roberts, born in 1796, was a prolific painter and lithographer, celebrated for his detailed and evocative depictions of architectural and historical sites across Europe and the Middle East. His works are particularly noted for their accuracy and artistic merit, capturing the essence of the locations he visited during his extensive travels.
This particular lithograph is part of Roberts' larger collection titled "The Holy Land, Syria, Idumea, Arabia, Egypt, and Nubia," which was published between 1842 and 1849. The collection consists of six volumes and includes 247 lithographs, all based on sketches Roberts made during his journey to the Middle East from 1838 to 1839. The series was a monumental success and remains one of the most significant visual records of the region during that period.
The lithograph "Mosque Of Sultanhassan From The Great Square Of The Rumeyleh" showcases the grandeur and architectural splendor of the Mosque-Madrassa of Sultan Hassan in Cairo, Egypt. Built between 1356 and 1363 during the Mamluk Sultanate, the mosque is an outstanding example of Islamic architecture, known for its massive scale, intricate decorations, and historical significance. Roberts' depiction captures the mosque's imposing structure and the bustling activity of the surrounding square, providing a vivid glimpse into 19th-century Cairo.
Roberts' work is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and his ability to convey the atmosphere and scale of the locations he portrayed. His lithographs were produced with the assistance of lithographer Louis Haghe, whose skillful rendering of Roberts' sketches contributed to the high quality and enduring appeal of the series. Today, Roberts' lithographs are highly valued by historians, art collectors, and enthusiasts of Middle Eastern history and architecture.
