Orientalist Painter (19th Century) - Landscape With Travellers, Ruins And Pyramid.

Orientalist painter (19th century) - Landscape with Travellers, Ruins and Pyramid.

37 x 48 cm (without frame) - 49 x 60 cm (with frame). Oil on canvas, in a carved and gilded wooden frame.

The composition depicts an Oriental landscape at sunset, with figures in Levantine dress on horseback and camel travelling along a rocky path. In the background to the left stands the silhouette of a pyramid, while to the right rise the ruins of a fortress on a rocky spur. Two palm trees punctuate the depth of the scene, animated by a warm light that fades from orange to blue across the sky, with a crescent moon in the upper right. The work belongs to the European Orientalist tradition of the 19th century, which found fertile ground in landscape painting featuring exotic subjects and ruins of the eastern Mediterranean.
