Description |
English:
An odalisque (female member of a harem) reclines exposed in the harem listening to a servant's lute music. This painting was commissioned by King
Wilhelm I
of Württemberg and was executed by Ingres with the assistance of his pupil Paul Flandrin. A
version
of this subject painted three years earlier shows the odalisque in an enclosed room rather than with the garden vista in the background (
Fogg Art Museum
, Cambridge, Massachusetts). This exotic composition, which was inspired by a passage from Lady Mary Wortley Montagu's
Turkish Letters
(1763), may have been conceived by Ingres in response to his rival
Eugène Delacroix
's success as a painter of Near Eastern subjects.
