Buy Painter’s Pyramid Stands Dauzats had traveled to Egypt as part of the entourage of arts impresario baron Isidore Taylor (1789–1879), who led a diplomatic mission to negotiate with Egypt’s ruler, Muhammad Ali (1769–1849), for the acquisition of the obelisks that then stood as a pair at the entrance to the Temple of Luxor; one of them would be installed at the center of the Place de la Concorde in Paris in October 1836. (For a view of the gate to the Temple of Luxor with its sole remaining obelisk painted in the same month, see the oil sketch by Antoine-Xavier-Gabriel de Gazeau, comte de La Bouëre, 2003.42.37). Dauzats and contemporaries who undertook similar journeys about the same time, including Alexandre-Gabriel Decamps (Turkey, 1828), Prosper Marilhat (Egypt, 1831–32), and Eugène Delacroix (Morocco and Algeria, 1832), are generally credited with elevating Orientalist subjects as a popular genre, one that served as a filter through which Europeans visualized and indeed conceptualized the Muslim world for much of the nineteenth century.

I have marked a relative point, which I continued around the fir wood plank, so that I would see the sign on each side. I did the drawing with a good square so that there was no risk to appear any differences on the sides. I prepared the circular saw table with the guide at 45 degrees. Being careful that the wood plank has reached the right position of the blade, I marked a point on the sliding guide along the line on the plank.

Painter’s pyramids are triangular shaped plastic supports used to elevate objects, such as furniture, shelves or cabinets, while they are being painted. They have rounded points that minimize any marks. That’s so you can prop up your paint project, then you can flip it over almost immediately to paint the other side. Although you can buy Painter’s Pyramid Stands or Painter’s Tripods in your local hardware store or online, they are so easy to make and they allow you to use up scraps of wood that you would otherwise discard.

The best part is that you won’t accidentally brush paint on your work surface because it raises your item off the table, like the shelf I’m painting below. Taking care that the two signs (the one on the plank and the one on the guide) are aligned, we made the first cut at 45 degrees. Then I turned the plank over the other three sides and cut it, taking care that the mark on the plank matches the one on the guide. Now I had a long plank with a pyramidal end. The pyramidal end of the fir wood plank with square section These DIY Painter’s Pyramid Stands have been an enormous time saver when working on projects that require painting both sides or even just the edges.

Given its sketchlike quality it is tempting to suppose that Dauzats painted the picture before the motif, but he is more likely to have done so after his return to France in the fall of 1830, perhaps at the same time that he was preparing for his debut at the Salon of 1831. There he showed two related subjects, a painting, Al-Azhar Mosque, Cairo (Assemblée Nationale, Paris), and a drawing, Turkish Café in Alexandria (whereabouts unknown). The present work is signed with the artist’s initials in a form that he used for a short period about 1830 (see Plessier 1990), yet its early history remains untraced, and it was unknown to scholars until it surfaced on the Paris art market in 1983. These DIY painter’s pyramid stands are super easy to make and super handy when staining or painting all sides of an object without waiting for dry time!

Do Painter’s Pyramids Work?

Alternatively, if you’re stripping a piece, Painter’s Pyramids are made from a solvent resistant polymer so can be used for more than just painting. Prior to my husband sharing how to make my own painter’s stands, I didn’t even know there was such a thing or that you could actually buy them. Maybe you didn’t know either.
