George de Sausmarez
George de Sausmarez is a British Romanticism artist. 45 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
George de Sausmarez painted watercolors of Egypt’s Nile in the 1850s, recording river scenes and landmarks with quick, transparent washes. He recorded “Dendoor. Nubia,” “View of the Nile,” and “Cataracts of Assouan” in 1855, plus an album of similar views. Tap into the Album to leaf through his on-the-spot sketches of palm groves, moored boats, and distant cliffs along the Pasha’s route.
