About the Item

Neo-Egyptian sculpture in stone and cement, this sculpture was a previous building façade in Barcelona, from the 19th century. Neo-Egyptian Architecture, also called Egyptian Revival Architecture, is an architectural style that uses the motifs and imagery of ancient Egypt. It is attributed generally to the public awareness of ancient Egyptian monuments generated by Napoleon's conquest of Egypt and Admiral Nelson's defeat of Napoleon at the Battle of the Nile during 1798. Napoleon took a scientific expedition with him to Egypt. Publication of the expedition's work, the Description de l'Égypte, began during 1809 and was published as a series through 1826. However, works of art and architecture (such as funerary monuments) with Egyptian style had been made or built occasionally in Europe and the British Islands since the time of the Renaissance.
