S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 An exhibition at the Francis Bacon Art Space<\/a> in Curitiba, Brazil, shows the beginning of Brazil\u2019s relations with Egypt as a way of celebrating the 200th<\/sup> anniversary of Egyptology<\/strong>, the study of ancient Egypt. The show \u201cO Egito dos Imperadores<\/strong>\u201d [Egypt of Emperors<\/strong>] opened on November 2 and runs until December 30, with free admission (see below for opening times<\/em>).<\/p>\n

Artifacts, photos and information on Egypt<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The exhibition is divided into two sections. One displays the history of the collection of emperor Dom Pedro I<\/strong>\u2019s Egyptian antiquities brought from France to Brazil, as well as 80 replicas of such pieces that were part of Rio de Janeiro\u2019s National Museum. There are even replicas of some artifacts that have never been exhibited or were lost in the museum\u2019s fire. The highlight is the Hor-sa-Aset <\/strong>mummy.<\/p>\n

The second section of the exhibition shows the interest of Dom Pedro II<\/strong> in Egypt and his travel itinerary in the nineteenth century. Maps and 28 photos from that time that are part of the National Library are displayed with descriptions registered in the emperor\u2019s diary. A replica of the statue of lady Takushit<\/strong>, a gift received by the emperor, and photos from the emperors\u2019 Egyptian collections are part of the exhibition.<\/p>\n

The 200 years of Egyptology are celebrated this year due to the decipherment of hieroglyphs by France\u2019s Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Champollion in 1822. \u201cTherefore, with the publication of the \u2018Letter to M. Dacier concerning the alphabet of the phonetic hieroglyphs\u2019 by Champollion in 1822, we see the birth of Egyptology that is being celebrated across the world. Here in Brazil, we thought that this date couldn\u2019t go by unnoticed,\u201d said PhD in Ancient History and archeologist Moacir Elias Santos, curator of the exhibition.<\/p>\n

The show is held by the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum and Ciro Flamarion Cardoso Archeology Museum. The Francis Bacon Art Space is located on the second floor of the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum\u2019s building, which holds a permanent exhibition focused on preserving the history of Ancient Egypt, with emphasis on pharaoh Tutankhamun and the presence of several replicas of pieces and Egyptian mummies.<\/p>\n
