David Roberts (painter)

From 70adwiki

David Roberts RA (24 October 1796 – 25 November 1864) was a Scottish painting. He is especially known for a prolific series of detailed prints of Egypt and the Near East produced during the 1840s from sketches made during long tours of the region (1838-1840). This work, and his large oil paintings of similar subjects, made him a prominent Orientalism painter. He was elected as a Royal Academician in 1841.
