Theodor Graf was a prominent dealer of Egyptian antiquities in the late 19th Century, who was originally a Viennese carpet dealer with a branch in Cairo but expanded into supplying antiquities to both museums and private clients. In 1887 he acquired 330 fayum portrait panels from the area around er-Rubayat, 90 of which formed a touring exhibition prior to sale in Europe and America.
