Egypt of David Roberts
-
Version
1.0
50 images of Egypt by David Roberts. Beautiful
Pharaonic and Islamic scenes chosen from his six
volumes of prints published in 1846. This screensaver
includes a portrait of David Roberts plus scenes
along the Nile of Abu Simbel, Karnak, the Temple of
Luxor, the Colossus of Memnon, Temples of Kom Obo,
Esna and Edfu, views of Philae, interiors and
exteriors of mosques in Cairo, views of Cairo,
Pyramids of Giza, and the Sphinx. All images have
been enhanced to show the vibrant colors of Cairo and
the heiroglyphic details and delicate colors of the
pharaonic ruins that Roberts painstakingly captured
in his watercolors which were drawn during his
travels of 1838 and 1839.
