Place Published: Egypt
Publisher:
Date Published: [1848-49]
Description:
Original sepia ink drawing. 11.5x17 cm (4½x6¾"), laid down and matted at an early date and obviously removed from an album.
Signed "E. Lear" in lower right corner. A cluster of buildings and palms with figures and silhouettes of camels in the foreground and pyramids in the background. This appears to date from Lear's earliest travels to Egypt in 1848-1849.
Condition
Minor foxing with a few unobtrusive creases; very good.
