David Roberts was a 19th century Scottish painter. After a successful career in the theater as a set painter he travelled considerably, painting landscapes of where he went. He's most well known as an Orientalist because of his paintings from his travels to Egypt. I featured one of his works in my post The immensity of time. He painted a variety of scenes, but I've chosen to show his paintings of Egyptian ruins.
Most of these pictures are from Art Print's post: David Roberts. There are many more examples of his work at that link. They include more scenes of Egyptian ruins as well as scenes of life and architecture throughout the Middle East and Europe.
