Description
Late 19th century antique Orientalist oil painting of a young woman

Continental, Late 19th Century

Frame: height 146cm, width 86cm, depth 7cm

Canvas: height 132cm, width 73cm

This large oil on canvas portrait attributed to Stefan Bakalowicz depicts a classic Orientalist subject: a young woman in traditional North African dress. It is designed to appeal to the late 19th century audience. The woman in the painting is shown looking into the distance, against a wall, and with flowers below her left hand.

The painting is set within a giltwood frame and is signed indistinctly to the centre left. The painting has a remarkable quality to it: neither impressionistic, nor fully naturalistic, but a mix of both, such that it has an excellent individual character and warmth to it, perfectly suited to render the graceful subject.
