About Caravane Dans Le Desert
"Caravane Dans Le Desert" painted by the famous Orientalist artist Jean Leon Gerome, is an admirable proof of his excellent ability to portray simple subject matter in an exceptionally detailed and attractive manner. This evocative work captures a camel caravan filing through a desert landscape, very possibly the Sinai, at sunset. With great mastery, Gérôme evokes the utter stillness of the evening desert air, as the caravan makes its final approach towards an oasis where it will halt for the night and the camels will be watered. Both the panoramic backdrop and the precise style in which it is executed make the painting a fascinating example of the link between the aesthetics of photography and Gérome’s own painterly vision.
