She was a flamboyant and controversial figure who was never accepted by polite society of her husband's family, who was one of Britain's richest brewing dynasties, Meux's Brewery.

She was painted by noted artist James Abbott McNeill Whistler three times, the portraits being the first full-scale commissions Whistler had after the Ruskin trial.Meux acquired five lavishly illustrated Ethiopic manuscripts. Once Meux discovered that these manuscripts were revered by the Ethiopians, she left them in her will to the Emperor Menelik. However, the courts set aside this provision in order to keep the manuscripts in Britain, and sold them to William Randolph Hearst of California.Translated and produced by E. A.

Leather. Etat : Very Good. Anon (illustrateur). First edition. An uncommon reproduction of these Egyptian funerary papyri. Printed together under the title 'The Book of the Dead' with brief explanations in English regarding the hieroglyphs and iconography. A very bright copy of this scarce workThis is one of several 'The Book of the Dead' publications issued by the British museum in the late nineteenth century. It showcases the real funerary texts held in their collections and made them available to a wider audience.With transcripts and translations by E A Wallis Budge, the keeper of Egyptian and Assyrian antiquities at the British museum.The papyri featured in this book form a funerary text, known as the 'Book of the Dead'. 'Book of the Dead' is an ancient Egyptian funerary text containing spells intended to assist the deceased's journey through Duat, or the underworld into the afterlife. They were typically placed in the coffins or burial chamber of the deceased. There was no single or canonical 'Book of the Dead' and evidence shows some people commissioned their own copies choosing spells they thought would be most vital to them.This particular publication contains four papyri, of 'Hunefer' (11 coloured plates), 'Anhai' (8 coloured plates), 'Kerasher' (3 plates) and 'Netchemet' (12 plates). The work also contains supplementary text from the Papyrus of Nu (63 plates).Collated, complete. In a half morocco binding with cloth covered boards. Externally, generally smart. Rubbing to the spine and extremities. A few light marks to the boards. Internally, generally firmly bound. Plate 9 of the 'Netchemet' papyrus is detached but present. This detached leaf is chipped to the edges, as is common with detached leaves. Pages are bright with just the occasional light spots. Very Good. book.

He made a number of trips trips to Egypt and Sudan on behalf of the British Museum to buy antiquities, and helped it build its collection of cuneiform tablets, manuscripts, and papyri. Budge's prolific and well-planned acquisitions gave the British Museum arguably the best Ancient Near East collections in the world, at a time when European museums were competing to build such collections. He published many books on Egyptology, helping to bring the findings to larger audiences. In 1920, he was knighted for his service to Egyptology and the British Museum (Wikipedia). Sprache: english.
