拍品專文

After Napoleon's campaigns in Egypt in 1798 and the subsequent publication of Voyage dans la Basse et Haute Egypte by Baron Bivant-Denon in 1802, this Egyptian subject became popular throughout the Empire period.
A pair of related Egyptian candelabra, forming part of a garniture and attributed to Claude Galle, bronzier au Garde-Meuble, is illustrated in H. Ottomeyer, P. Proschel et al., Vergoldete Bronzen, Munich, 1986, p. 338, fig. 5.3.6. A further nearly identical pair is illustrated in Egyptomania, Exhibition Catalogue, Paris, 1994, p. 290, fig. 4 and in P. M. Favelac, Aujourd'hui s'installer en Directoire, Empire, Paris p. 46.
