"Travels In Egypt And Nubia" is a seminal work by the Scottish painter David Roberts, first published in the mid-19th century. This collection of lithographs and accompanying text documents Roberts' extensive travels through Egypt and Nubia between 1838 and 1839. Renowned for its detailed and vivid depictions of ancient monuments, landscapes, and daily life, the work is considered one of the most important visual records of the region during that period.

David Roberts, originally a theatrical scene painter, embarked on his journey to Egypt and Nubia with the intention of capturing the grandeur and mystery of the ancient world. His travels took him from Alexandria to the southern reaches of Nubia, covering significant archaeological sites such as the Pyramids of Giza, the temples of Luxor and Karnak, and the rock-cut temples of Abu Simbel. Roberts' keen eye for detail and his ability to convey the scale and majesty of these ancient structures earned him widespread acclaim.

The lithographs were produced by Louis Haghe, a master lithographer, who translated Roberts' sketches into stunning prints. Published by F.G. Moon in London between 1846 and 1849, the work was released in several volumes, each containing a series of plates accompanied by descriptive text. The publication was a commercial success and solidified Roberts' reputation as one of the foremost Orientalist artists of his time.

"Travels In Egypt And Nubia" not only provides a visual feast but also serves as an important historical document. It offers insights into the state of these ancient sites before the advent of modern archaeology and tourism. The work has been praised for its artistic merit and its contribution to the Western understanding of Egyptian and Nubian antiquities. Today, it remains a valuable resource for historians, archaeologists, and art enthusiasts alike.
