Women of Algiers in their Apartment (1834)

Eugène Delacroix: Women of Algiers in their Apartment

This painting is Delacroix's first foray into Orientalism; it resulted from his trip to North Africa in 1832 - a trip which clearly influenced the remainder of his artistic career.

More about this painting can be found at Wikipedia and Artble.
