About the Item
Antiquities of Sahdaab near the First Cataract – Egypt Engraving, c.1755
This engraved view depicts the antiquities of Sahdaab, located several leagues from the First Cataract of the Nile in Nubia. Ruined structures, palm clusters, and distant settlements line the riverbank, with a single boat providing scale and movement.
The plate reflects Norden’s broader interest in documenting lesser-known sites alongside famous monuments, contributing to a more complete geographic and archaeological record of the Nile Valley.
Its restrained composition and strong sense of distance make it particularly attractive as a standalone decorative print.
