Original print folio, taken from Travels in Upper and Lower Egypt Vivant Denon. Board decorated with an engraving divided into two figures, and described by the author: # 1 is the plan of small apartment that is about the height of the Great Temple of Tentyra: It is difficult to say what was the use: it was an oratory, an observatory, a sanctuary, an apartment? Judging by the subjects that are sculpted we might believe that it was a place to study, a place devoted to astronomy, or perhaps devoted entirely to the burial of a person who would have recommended part of discovery, the results of studies of his life; there was entering through a small door, 4: the first room, C, is no ceiling...

Original print folio untrimmed extracted Travellers in Lower and Upper Egypt Vivant Denon. Folding plate decorated with an engraving subdivided into three figures, and described by the author: No.1 This relief is carved on one of the beds of the portico of the great temple of Tentyra (see map, plate XL, 8).

Folding plate decorated with an engraving divided into two figures, as described by the author: Both sides of the zodiac on the two most opposite of the ceiling of the portico of the temple of Tentyra beds (see map, plate XL , No. 8): the two great figures appear to be those enveloping the year. The winged sign that is in front of their mouth is that of eternity or the passage of the sun at the solstices: the disc is at the juncture of the thighs in Figure 1, the Sun, where he leaves a beam of light falling on a head of Isis, which represents or earth or the moon; sun, placed the sign of cancer, can...

Board decorated with an engraving subdivided into seven figures, and described by the author: No.1 This figure of three quarters of nature carved high relief on the main door from inside the portico of the temple to Latopolis NSHS is probably that of the god which was dedicated this monument, the Egyptian Jupiter Ammon loved one. No. 2 I found several times this great figure carved beside the door of the tomb, where there had one body; I have always found this attitude of pity and tenderness: it would be the widow of the deceased expressing regret? it would be the costume of Egyptian women, which is...
