Karnac (Oblique view across the Hall of Columns). 1847, Lithograph (Standard First Edition), 19x13 inches. Standard Edition lithograph printed by Louis Haghe of an original drawing done by David Roberts on his travels through Egypt. The image is an angled view of the Columns of the Hypostyle hall at the ruins of Karnac in Egypt and is one of the more popular images in the series. It is signed in the print by both David Roberts and Louis Haghe (lower right) and titled and dated "Karnac, Nov. 29th, 1838" (lower left). The image itself, like all of the images in this series, is mounted to a white card. The Royal Standard Editions are plain whereas the standard editions, like this, bear the publisher's information ("London, Published by F.G. Moon 20 Threadneedle St. May 1st, 1847") and the title of the work (here covered by the mat, but would read "Karnac" in block letters in the color of one of the print stones used). It has been professionally framed and matted. Not opened for examination..
