David Roberts, Temple at Esneh, original tinted and hand-coloured lithograph

Description: David Roberts (1798–1864) and Louis Haghe (1806–1885). F. G. Moon, 20 Threadneedle Street, London 1842–49. ‘Temple at Esneh, Nov. 25, 1838’. Image Size: 13 x 19; overall: 31 1/2 x 25 1/4. Tinted lithograph with additional hand-colouring. Standard Edition, moulded wood frame with double mat and Museum Glass. Overall very good condition, no foxing. Roberts travelled extensively through the Near East in 1838–39, producing hundreds of sketches which he would later work up into finished drawings, water colours and, in some instances, oil paintings, which served as the basis for the lithographs produced by the Dutch lithographer Louis Haghe. The original folio publication in the 1840s was in two formats: 1) The Royal Subscription Edition (RSE), in which all of the tinted lithographs were printed on thin paper mounted to card and hand coloured in watercolour to the specifications of Roberts’ originals. 2) The more plentiful Standard Edition (SE), in which the tinted lithographs were printed directly on thick paper and issued uncoloured, with the option of additional hand-colouring to be added later at the discretion of the purchaser. A few plates, such as the Approach of the Simoon, were polychromatic lithographs, printed in both formats using a multiplicity of stones, though later hand colouring of highlights is often found in these as well. Robert’s original watercolour of the temple of Esneh was recently sold at auction: https://www.christies.com/en/lot/lot-6381327
