About the Item

Mountains of Abyssode opposite Umm el Gusur – Nile View, c.1755 This wide view depicts the mountains known as Abyssode, facing the village of Umm el Gusur across the Nile. The composition is defined by rugged rock formations, calm water, and small sailing vessels that introduce scale and rhythm. Norden’s precise line work conveys both the mass of the landscape and the serenity of the river, making this plate a refined example of Enlightenment-era travel engraving. Its clean structure and expansive horizon make it particularly suitable for modern interiors while retaining strong historical appeal. Condition report: Very good antique condition. Light toning and minimal spotting. Clear plate mark. Framing tips: A minimalist frame with a generous mat works especially well for this plate’s open composition. Technique: Copper engraving Maker: Frederik Ludvig Norden, Copenhagen, circa 1755
