"Sheikh Abadeh on the Nile" is a watercolor painting by the British artist Edward Lear (1812–1888), known primarily for his literary nonsense in poetry and prose and especially his limericks, a form he popularised. Apart from his literary contributions, Lear was also a proficient landscape painter and travel writer. His artistic work often reflects his journeys through Europe and the Middle East, capturing the essence of the regions' landscapes and cultural milieu.

Created during one of Lear's voyages along the Nile River in Egypt, "Sheikh Abadeh on the Nile" depicts the serene and picturesque environment of the Nile's banks near the small town of Sheikh Abadeh. The painting is characteristic of Lear's detailed and atmospheric style, showcasing his ability to convey the unique light and ambiance of the places he visited. His works from this period are noted for their precision and the artist's dedication to portraying the natural beauty and architectural features of the landscapes he encountered.

Lear's travels in Egypt were part of his broader exploration of the Mediterranean region, which greatly influenced his artistic output. The paintings he produced during these travels, including "Sheikh Abadeh on the Nile," not only served as visual records of his journeys but also contributed to the Victorian era's fascination with Orientalism and the exotic allure of the East.

As a notable work from Edward Lear's collection of travel-inspired paintings, "Sheikh Abadeh on the Nile" reflects the artist's keen observation and his commitment to capturing the world through his unique artistic lens. The painting is a testament to Lear's dual legacy as both a beloved writer of nonsense verse and a serious landscape painter with a discerning eye for the subtleties of his surroundings.
