EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jean Leon Gerome's "Arnaut bodyguards in Cairo" painting from 1861. The oil on panel artwork measures 50.2x37.5 cm and is part of a private collection. The painting depicts a small group of Arnaut bodyguards, dressed in traditional Middle Eastern attire, standing outside an archway in Cairo. Gerome, a French artist known for his orientalist style, beautifully captures the vibrant colors and intricate details of the scene. The men are depicted in various postures: some engaged in conversation while others take a moment to rest on the brick structure behind them. The composition offers a glimpse into life during the mid-19th century in North Africa, with its architectural features and clothing reflecting the cultural context of the time. The academic style employed by Gerome adds depth and realism to each figure, highlighting their individuality within the group. Through this artwork, Gerome invites viewers to appreciate both the beauty of his artistic technique and gain insight into historical customs and traditions. This particular print allows art enthusiasts to bring home a piece of history as they admire Gerome's masterful portrayal of these Arnaut bodyguards amidst the bustling streets of Cairo.
