"Early 20th Century Small Orientalist Paper Painting"
Small
tempera painting on paper, framed in a carved cherry wood frame and protected
by glass. The painting depicts a classic orientalist scene, set in a landscape
that seems desert-like. Three figures can be distinguished: two men in oriental
clothes on dromedaries and a woman walking on foot, carrying a child in her
arms. This is an enjoyable painting for the skillful use of colors and shadows.
In the lower right corner is the signature of the artist R. Burat. The painting
can be dated around the early 20th century.
