Egypt and Nubia, Volume I: Statues of Memnon, Thebes is a 1846 by Louis Haghe, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
In the image, you see two large statues of people sitting on chairs. The statues are in the middle of a flat area with some small rocks and sand. There are some buildings in the distance, but they are not very clear. The sky is light brown and has some clouds. The whole picture is drawn in shades of brown and gray. The statues look very old and important. They are sitting on chairs with their hands on their knees. The chairs have carvings on them, but you can't see the details very well. The statues are facing forward, looking serious. If you want to learn more about this style of art, you might want to look into the Romanticism movement.
Louis Haghe (17 March 1806 – 9 March 1885) was a lithographer and watercolourist from the Netherlands and then the United Kingdom.
