HISTORIC PROVENANCE
The Table Lamp Horus draws direct inspiration from a meta-greywacke sculpture of the god Horus protecting King Nectanebo II. Part of the Egyptian art collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the sculpture, dating to 360–343 B.C., speaks to the pharaoh’s deep—if not merging—connection to Horus, the falcon god of kingship. Nectanebo II was even referred to as “Nectanebo-the-Falcon.” The original statue’s strong, noble form has been reproduced for the Table Lamp Horus in a copper-bronze finish and a linen-mix shade handmade in the Netherlands.
