Traveling from Egypt across the Suez to Mount Sinai, Petra, and Jerusalem, Roberts produced a large corpus of drawings and watercolors of all the major holy sites. These works formed the basis of the tinted lithographs that were collected and published soon after his return to England. That book, The Holy Land, Syria, Idumea, Araia, Egypt, and Nubia enjoyed immense popularity in England and the United States and provided the public with its first glimpse of the biblical landscape and monuments known only by name.Jerusalem and the Holy Land Rediscovered reproduces for the first time in full color all of Roberts's lithographs along with the unabridged text by the Reverend George Croly, L.L.D. that accompanied the prints when they first appeared in 1842. Reproduced from one of the best preserved sets in the world, this rare edition had been in a private collection in Maryland since the 1850s and has recently been acquired by the Duke University Museum of Art.
