51-7165Paris: L'Imprimerie de la Republique 1797. Engraving. Handcolored and matted. The work titled "Naufrage des deux chaloupes au Port des Francais" was created by Nicolas Marie Ozanne and engraved by Dequevauviller with script by L. Aubert. It is Plage 25 in the "Atlas du Voyage de la Perouse" published in 1797 by L'Imprimerie de la Republique. The engraving measures 41 cm in width and 28 cm in height.This composition is an engraved drawing depicting a dramatic maritime scene at Lituya Bay Alaska. The setting is a tumultuous sea where two longboats chaloupes are shown shipwrecked. The foreground is dominated by the chaotic struggle of sailors clinging to debris amidst towering waves. The figures are rendered with dynamic expressions and gestures emphasizing the peril and urgency of the situation.In the middle ground the remaining parts of the vessels are visible and some crew members attempt to navigate the wreckage. The background features a serene landscape of rugged mountains and dense forests offering a stark contrast to the tumultuous scene in the foreground. The sky is filled with dramatic clouds enhancing the overall tension and atmosphere of the artwork.The engraving's style reflects the precision and attention to detail typical of late 18th-century maritime art. The lines are finely etched capturing both the ferocity of the sea and the tranquility of the surrounding landscape.This work is historically significant as it is part of the narrative of Jean-Francois de Galaup comte de La Perouse's voyage. La Perouse embarked on an expedition from France in 1785 to further the discoveries initiated by Captain Cook. Unfortunately he was shipwrecked in 1788 but his documented experiences including maps and views were preserved and published in this atlas.The cultural context reflects the Age of Enlightenment's spirit of exploration and scientific inquiry as European powers sought to chart unknown territories. This particular scene set in Alaska underscores the dangers faced by explorers during these expeditions.The engraving is part of a larger atlas "La Perouse's Voyages" which contains 34 maps and views. This specific piece is listed under List No 3355.025 and Page No 25 in the Rumsey Collection. The work is an exceptional example of 18th-century cartographic art issued to accompany La Perouse's global voyages with particular emphasis on the hazards and discoveries encountered during these explorations.

The Egyptian campaign' militarily a disaster demonstrates through the engravings of the Description d'Egypte the scientific success it nonetheless became thanks to the 167 expert members of the Commission of the Sciences and Arts of the Institut d'Egypte Egyptian Institute who followed Napoleon's army. The Institut gathered together in Egypt the mathematician Monge the chemist Berthollet the naturalist Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire as well as numerous artists engineers architects and doctors. They were tasked with re-discovering modern and ancient Egypt and displaying its natural treasures as well as the know-how of its inhabitants.This edition the so-called Imperial edition of the plates for the Description de l'Egypte was printed in four large formats two of which were specially created for it and christened Moyen-Egypte and Grand-Egypte. A special press was built to print it the process extending over 20 years from 1809 to 1829. The Imperial edition proved so popular that a second edition this time in black and white and without the Egypte ancienne et moderne watermark known as the Royal Edition was published during the Restoration by the printing house of C.-L.-F. Panckoucke Paris.The engravings of the Description d'Egypte owe a great deal to Baron Dominique-Vivant Denon illustrator diplomat collector and later Director of the Musée Napoléon the Louvre. His exploration of the South of Egypt gave Bonaparte the idea of sending the experts of the Institut there thus creating a faithful and complete portrait of the area. This was the research gathered together from 1802 in the mammoth Description de L'Egypte.Denon embarked on this story of archeological exploration at the age of 51 reaching first Alexandria and then Cairo before exploring Upper Egypt.
