A ready-made vintage Egypt junk journal kit of 20 printable pieces of Egypt and the Nile as travelling artists saw it: David Roberts' great Hypostyle Hall at Karnak with its painted columns and his view from the portico of the Temple of Edfu, John Frederick Lewis's Edfou and Ramesseum, William James Müller's Karnak and a Cairo bazaar, a market place at Tanta, the Sphinx, the temple of Gerf Hussein, and six of Edward Lear's quick, luminous Nile sketches (Abu Simbel, Amada, Thebes, Negadeh, Kalabsha and the desert near Suez). With them come engravings of the Pyramids of Giza, Grand Cairo and the Nile, and two 18th-century drawings of the pyramids with views and cross-sections by Giovanni Battista Borra.

Print sizes at 300 dpi (they vary by piece type; files are never resized):
• Watercolours of temples, towns and the Nile (15): about 4 × 12 in up to 12 × 34 in, big enough for A4 / letter prints and framing
• Engravings and etchings (3): about 10 × 15 in up to 19 × 22 in, big enough for A4 / letter prints and framing
• 18th-century pyramid drawings (2): about 13 × 19 in, big enough for A4 / letter prints and framing
Everything also prints smaller (A5, A6, tags, ATCs) with no loss.

Files: 20 high-resolution JPGs in one zip download (77 MB). Pixel sizes: watercolours about 3,900–10,200 px on the long edge; engravings about 4,600–6,600 px on the long edge; pyramid drawings about 5,900–5,900 px on the long edge. These are the full-size museum and library scans. Nothing is cropped or resized: each piece is the museum's full original scan, so some sheets keep their paper edges, inscriptions and the artists' own notes.
