Eirik Arff Gulseth Bøhn is a Ph.D. fellow in architectural history working on the HERA-funded research project Printing the Past. Architecture, Print Culture, and Uses of the Past in Modern Europe (PriArc), where he investigates architectural print culture. In 2018 he curated Images of Egypt, an exhibition at the Historical Museum, Oslo, alongside Mari Lending and Tim Anstey. He also co-edited the accompanying book. Originally specialised in the art and architecture of seventeenth-century Rome, with MAs from the Courtauld Institute of Art and the University of Oslo, his current research is devoted to reassessing the place of Napoleon’s Description de l’Égypte in French architectural discourse at the outset of the nineteenth century.
