Léon Jean Joseph Dubois, Serving the Emerging Field of Egyptology
Léon-Jean-Joseph Dubois (1780-1846) trained as a painter in the workshops of Jacques-Louis David and Antoine-Jean Gros before turning to scientific illustration. He became a collaborator of Jean-François Champollion, for whom he created the plates for the Panthéon égyptien dedicated to the deities of ancient Egypt, including Hathor, Thoueris, and Wadjet, as seen in the work Emblems of Hathor. He later became assistant curator of the Louvre's Egyptian department and in 1829 took part in the Morea expedition in Greece, which led to the discovery of the Temple of Olympian Zeus at Olympia. Bringing one of these prints into your home means preserving that research, not filling an empty space.
Crafted to last
Each Framed Art Print is made with fine art paper, then finished and framed by hand in Italy. We do not chase an immediate effect: we seek a result that remains faithful to the original colors over time, because a work intended to be passed down deserves a foundation as solid as the history it tells.

A work of art, not just decoration
A print does more than simply fill a wall: it carries a theme, an era, and a story that continues to speak to those who view it. The works of Léon Jean Joseph Dubois preserved by Miriaci remain faithful to this principle — pieces chosen for their meaning, even before their aesthetic appeal.
Aesthetics fade. Meaning remains.
