Bruxelles, Degobert, (ca. 1850). Lithographed plate depicting a half-reclining nude with a string instrument and a parrot, with a black woman smoking a hookah next to her. Ca. 17,5 x 22 cm. Philippe-Jacques van Bree, a Belgian painter (1786 - 1871), was influenced by Orientalism. He often chose exotic subjects, often with nudes. An odalisque, Ottoman Turkish, was a chambermaid or a female attendant in a Turkish seraglio, particularly the court ladies in the household of the Ottoman sultan. In western European usage, the term came to mean the harem concubine, and refers to the eroticized artistic genre in which a woman is represented mostly or completely nude in a reclining position, often in the setting of a harem. It was part of a fascination with Orientalism. - Fine.
