A beautiful 19th century Egyptian revival sculpture. The Egyptian Revival, although anticipated by Gianbattista Piranesi in his Egyptian decorative scheme for the 'Caffe degli Inglesi' published in his Diversi Manieri di Ornare i Cammini of 1769, reached its zenith in the first quarter of the nineteenth century, due to the publication in 1802 of Voyage dans la Basse et la Haute Egypte by Baron Dominique Vivant-Denon. This series of engravings, promoted by Napoleon to glorify his campaign in Egypt, started a fashion known as Retour d'Egypte which spread rapidly throughout Europe, bolstered by the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869.
