David Roberts

Scottish, 1796–1864

David Roberts (1796–1864) war ein schottischer Maler, der für seine detaillierten Lithografien bekannt ist, die Ägypten und den Nahen Osten darstellen, basierend auf Skizzen aus seinen Reisen zwischen 1838 und 1840. Seine Werke und großen Ölgemälde zu ähnlichen Themen etablierten ihn als prominenten Orientalisten. Er wurde 1841 zum Royal Academician gewählt.
