The Citadel of Tangier, Morocco - David Roberts Art Print

Fine Art Prints

Forget cheap reproductions and printable posters. Only the best will do.

Velvety matte fine art paper (warm white, archival-grade, 200gsm) with bold, vibrant, non-toxic pigment inks. High-definition print lab techniques give you sharper details, deeper saturation and true-to-life tones. While the matte surface keeps glare down and archival-grade materials mean the colors you fall for stay vivid for decades.

Framed Fine Art Prints

Your print arrives framed and ready to hang, so it goes straight from the box to your wall.

Chevron cut wooden frames make a timeless statement in three distinctive colors: black, white and natural. Each frame is made of sustainably sourced FSC® certified knotless pine. And your artwork is protected behind ultra-clear perspex glaze that’s lighter than glass and shatter-resistant.

Float Framed Canvas Prints

Luscious artist-grade cotton canvas, hand-stretched and finely textured, gives every detail depth and precision, catching light and color with striking clarity. While a precisely measured floating frame leaves a slim gap around the canvas, so it seems to hover with a sleek, gallery-worthy effect. Finished with your choice of frame color — black, white or natural — made from sustainably sourced FSC® certified knotless pine.

Giclée Printing

Somebody has set the hill of Tangier like a theatrical production. David Roberts began as a scene painter at Drury Lane, and he stacks the view in layers: a terrace where a woman in rose and blue rests with a child, flat roofs stepping upward, a tiled minaret dead center and a citadel dissolving into bare paper at the crest.

A man in a striped vest and white trousers carries a bundle past the pair. Two figures talk at the left, and a cat plays with a ball of yarn at the lower edge. Bands of patterned tile climb the minaret, and a pennant tops its small lantern beside a domed building. Sepia and cream washes shape the slope, and haze thickens toward the crest until the ramparts read as the backdrop of a stage. A bay of watery blue opens on the far side with a ship riding in it.

Roberts crossed from Gibraltar to Tangier on his tour of Spain and Morocco in the early 1830s, and his sketches of the trip later fed lithographs in a book published in 1837. A traveler's drawing like this one keeps its color for the people and leaves the architecture to wash.

The Citadel of Tangier, Morocco awaits your study or hallway as an antique sepia watercolor, where a haze of old rooftops gives a bare wall a long view.
