Description
73695 Imperial Harem Odalisque Renoir Reproduction Tapestry, 04'08 x 06'04.
Drawing inspiration from Rudolphe Ernst, Odalisque by Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Reclining Odalisque by Gustave Leonard de Jonghe, this handwoven wool tapestry features two seductive female figures known as Harems embodying the Orientalism artistic movement and erotic paintings from the 19th century. The Ottoman Empire style wall hanging depicts a scene of an ikbal servant catering to the Sultan's Imperial Harem. The Imperial Harem reclines on a low-profile bench with her legs extended upon a tiger skin rug with its head rug. A stringed musical instrument known as an Oud rests beside the Imperial Harem's feet. The ikbal servant stands with a pitcher waiting on the Imperial Harem. A Moorish mosaic hanging lantern suspends from the top center and two Islamic pattern Mosque arch windows in the backdrop add fundamental interest to this erotic Islamic wall art.
