Friedrich Perlberg

The Monumental Statues at the Mountain Temple of Abu Simbel in Egypt

Watercolour. 41 x 26 cm.
Framed under glas.
Signed and inscribed lower left and in the centre: F. Perlberg / Tempelberg v. Abu Simbel / Nubien.

This watercolour is thought to have been painted in 1896, the year in which Friedrich Perlberg travelled to Egypt, Nubia, and Sudan. Two years later he was among the retinue which accompanied Emperor Wilhelm II to the Holy Land, where he also carried out numerous watercolours.
