More information

Bronsarbetet är troligen gjort av hovciselören Fredrik Ludvig Rung. Under åren för urets tillkomst var intresset stort för Egypten i och med Napoleons fälttåg där på 1790-talet. Auktionens bordspendyl är ett stiligt exempel på hur formgivarna inspirerades av de egyptiska stilelementen i form av sfinxer och pyramider.
