A Vintage Travel Art of Petra - Jordan

Natural color of the cave at Petra in Jordan

The entrance to the city of Petra through a deep gorge - the Siq (shaft) - here depicted in the style of an oil painting. Looks familiar - but then we've seen Indiana Jones galloping through here! Carry on walking and you reach the rock-hewn buildings that make up this anazing place. It was the ancient capital of the Nabataeans who settled here in about the C4th BCE. The buildings are carved out of the rock face of this red sandstone giving it the name of 'The Rose Gold City or Red Rose City.

Emerging from the deep canyon called the Siq into the ancient city of Petra, we are suddenly confronted by this amazing building called The Treasury carved out of the red sandsone. 40m high and decorated with Corinthian columns, its actual purpose is unknown though the discovery of a graveyard suggests it might well have been a temple. This image has been finished as a coloured pencil sketch.

Treasury. Petra. Jordan. *World Heritage Site* Petra is an archaeological site in the Arabah, Ma'an Governorate, Jordan, lying on the slope of Mount Hor[1] in a basin among the mountains which form the eastern flank of Arabah (Wadi Araba), the large valley running from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba. It is renowned for its rock cut architecture. Petra is also one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. The Nabataeans constructed it as their capital city around 100 BCE. The site remained unknown to the Western world until 1812, when it was introduced to the West by Swiss explorer Johann Ludwig Burckhardt. It was famously described as "a rose-red city half as old as time" in a Newdigate Prize-winning sonnet by John William Burgon. UNE...

The first sight visitors see upon emerging from the 1.5 kilometer-long Siq is the Treasury (Arabic: al-Khazneh), the most magnificent of Petra's sights. The Treasury is carved out of solid rock and stand The Treasury was probably constructed in the 1st century BC. As its design has no precedent in Petra, it is thought that it was carved by Near-Eastern Hellenistic architects. The purpose of the Treasury remains something of a mystery. One thing that is fairly certain, however, is that it was not a treasury. In reality, the Treasury is generally believed to be a temple or a royal tomb, but neither conclusion is certain. The tomb/temple got its popular name from the Bedouin belief that pirates hid ancient pharoanic treasures in the thol...

The Siq, literally ‘the Shaft’, is the main entrance to the ancient city of Petra in southern Jordan. In some points no more than 3 metres wide and winds its way approximately 1.2 kilometres and ends at Petra's most elaborate ruin, Al Khazneh (the Treasury). Unlike slot canyons which are directly shaped by water, the Siq is a natural geological fault split apart by tectonic forces; only later was it worn smooth by water. The walls that enclose the Siq stand between 91–182 metres in height. The Siq was used as the grand caravan entrance into Petra. Along both walls of the fissure are a number of votive niches containing baetyli, which suggest that the Siq was sacred to the Nabatean people. In 1998, a group of statues were uncovered whe...
