EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour print by Scottish artist and orientalist David Roberts showcases the magnificent Pompeys Pillar in Alexandria. Standing tall and proud, this red granite column was erected to honor Diocletian during the 4th century. Interestingly, it was once believed to mark the burial place of none other than Pompey the Great himself. Roberts' attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, as he skillfully captures the grandeur of this ancient monument. The vibrant hues of his watercolour technique bring life to the scene, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in its historical significance. As a British artist renowned for his depictions of exotic landscapes and architectural wonders, Roberts masterfully conveys both the majesty and mystery surrounding Pompeys Pillar. His ability to transport us back in time through art is truly remarkable. This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) serves as a testament to Roberts' talent and dedication as an artist. It invites us on a visual journey through history, offering a glimpse into ancient Alexandria's rich cultural heritage
