This is the first english-language-edition of Vivant Denon's masterpiece and Bestseller of early 19th century Travel-Literature. Denon was single-handedly responsible for European Travellers to discover the beauty and importance of Egypt, its History and Architetcure. While there were expanded editions of this work in short succession (the 1803-edition has already 60 plates and the 1804-Edition, printed by Taylor & Co. in London has its own Atlas and 140 illustrations and is offered not seldom for more than 10000 Euros on the international market !), the two-Volume set we offer here is the first english edition of Denon's introduction to the African Continent as a place of leisurely and at the same time, educational Travel-Destination. Our set is of remarkable cleanliness, fully restored and from a great library the set is a perfect gift for the lover of Egypt and African Travel Literature.

"Meccans brought before General Belliard in the Tombs of Nacadeh" Dominique Vivant, Baron Denon (4 January 1747 27 April 1825) was a French artist, writer, diplomat, author, and archaeologist. Denon was a diplomat for France under Louis XV and Louis XVI. He was appointed as the first Director of the Louvre museum by Napoleon after the Egyptian campaign of 17981801, and is commemorated in the Denon Wing of the modern museum and in the Dominique-Vivant Denon Research Center. His two-volume Voyage dans la basse et la haute Egypte ("Journey in Lower and Upper Egypt"), 1802, was foundational for modern Egyptology. At Bonaparte's invitation he joined the expedition to Egypt as part of the arts and literature section of the Institut d'Égypte, and thus found the opportunity of gathering the materials for his most important literary and artistic work. He accompanied General Desaix to Upper Egypt, and made numerous sketches of the monuments of ancient art, sometimes under the very fire of the enemy. The results were published in his "Voyage dans la basse et la haute Egypte" ("Journey in Lower and Upper Egypt"), published as two volumes in 1802. The work crowned his reputation both as an archaeologist and as an artist, and sparked the Egyptian Revival in architecture and decorative arts. (Wikipedia) Sprache: english.
