Pair of French Empire Period Egyptian Revival Style Locre Porcelain Vases

About the Item

A Pair of French Empire Period Egyptian Revival Style Locre Porcelain Vases. Each vase reflects the influence of the Egyptian Revival style that gained prominence after Napoleon's campaign in Egypt (1798–1801). The vases are crafted in the classical Campagne shape, featuring flared bodies and double handles designed in the form of Egyptian figures, a hallmark of the "Retour d'Égypte" movement. The vases are adorned with hand-painted sepia-toned scenes depicting classical themes, rendered with precision. The body of the vases showcases gilded neoclassical motifs, enhancing their visual appeal and aligning with the artistic trends of the Napoleonic era. The Egyptian Revival handles are indicative of the fascination with pharaonic art and culture that characterized French decorative arts during this period, offering insight into the cultural exchange between France and Egypt in the early 19th century, as well as the broader impact of Napoleon's expedition on European design. France, Circa: 1815
