EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching captures the historic scene of the Battle of El Cairo, or the Battle of the Pyramids, which took place on July 21, 1798. The image, created in France, is part of the Decorative Arts Library's (Bibliothèque des Arts Décoratifs) extensive collection. The outdoor scene is depicted under the bright daylight, with the sun casting long shadows on the sandy ground. The group of men, dressed in military attire, are shown in the foreground, engaged in the intense battle. In the background, the iconic pyramids of Egypt rise majestically against the clear blue sky, serving as a stark reminder of the ancient civilization that once thrived in this land. The etching, with its rich colors and intricate details, beautifully captures the essence of this significant historical moment in time. The Battle of El Cairo marked a major victory for the French forces under the command of Napoleon Bonaparte, paving the way for their conquest of Egypt. This etching is a testament to the artistic and historical significance of this period in history.
