50 MANUFACTURE DE SÈVRES manufacturer France est. 1756 Egyptian inkwell Encrier égyptien 1802 porcelain (patinated and gilt) Sèvres Cité de la Céramique, Paris inv. MNC 2648 Napoleon’s exploits in Egypt reinvigorated earlier eighteenth-century taste for things Egyptian. This Egyptian-style inkwell fabricated with an imitation bronze finish is one of the Sèvres manufactory’s first works directly inspired by the Egyptian Campaign. The decoration incorporates a fanciful appropriation and interpretation of Egyptian hieroglyphs. The pair of sphinx fireplace guards also displayed here represent a model very much in vogue during the Consulate and Empire periods. Fireplace guards of this type are to be found in the bedchambers of both Josephine and Napoleon at Malmaison. © COPYRIGHT This document remains the property of the National Gallery of Victoria and must be returned upon request.
