Karnac.

Karnac.Nov.r 29th 1838.

David Roberts. R.A. L. Haghe Lith.
London, Published F. G. Moon, 20 Threadneedle Street, May 1st. 1847.
Tinted lithograph, printed area 490 x 325mm (19¼ x 12¾").
A view of The Hall of Columns, considered to be one of the world's greatest architectural masterpieces, with collapsed columns in the foreground, published in the monumental folio edition of 'Egypt & Nubia: from drawings made on the spot' by David Roberts (1796 - 1864), lithographed by Louis Haghe. This example comes from the library of Sir Richard Hungerford Pollen (1815-81), 3rd Baronet of Redenham, an amateur artist listed as a subscriber to this work. However this is not a hand-coloured subscription plate but is still an early printing, one issued in wrappered parts prior to the bound First Edition.
Abbey Travel 272.
