The Gateway to the Great Temple at Baalbec
Painting by David Roberts
The Gateway to the Great Temple at Baalbec is an oil on canvas by the British artist David Roberts, from 1841. It depicts the ruined ancient Roman temple complex at the city of Baalbek in Lebanon. Roberts had visited the site in 1839 during his first tour of the Middle East. He added figures in local costume to help emphasise the grand scale of the buildings.
