A colour lithograph by David Roberts, 'Fountain of the Virgin, Nazareth' depicts a bustling scene of daily life in 19th-century Nazareth, showcasing the artist's meticulous detail and atmospheric perspective.
David Roberts (1796-1864) was a Scottish painter, best known for his detailed depictions of historical and architectural subjects, particularly those from his travels in the Near East and Egypt. His work is characterised by its meticulous detail, atmospheric perspective, and a romantic sensibility towards the subjects he portrayed. Roberts's travels and the resulting artwork contributed significantly to the 19th-century European fascination with the Orient. He was elected a Royal Academician in 1841. 'Fountain of the Virgin, Nazareth' presents a scene of daily life in Nazareth. The composition is populated with figures, some carrying water jugs, others on horseback, all set against the backdrop of an arched structure and sparse vegetation. The colour lithograph, with its delicate hand finishing, captures the light and atmosphere of the region. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the figures' clothing and the architectural elements, providing a glimpse into the cultural and physical environment of 19th-century Nazareth.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
