Description

Possible copy of Texier’s original 1839 drawing housed in the Lepsius legacy in the Manuscript Department at the State Library in Berlin The folder containing the drawings is labelled ‘Dessins envoyés par M. H. Guys à M. Lajard’, but this probably refers to the drawings of the reliefs from Nahr el-Kalb, which are also kept in the Lepsius collection. There are no signatures on the document, but the Berlin drawing (an identical pen version also exists) could be a copy of Texier’s original 1839 drawing, as it closely resembles that published by Texier in 1849.
