French Orientalism
In the 18C, stimulated by Romanticism's
taste for the exceptional and the exotic,
painters began to travel to Turkey, the Middle
East and to North Africa. Orientalist painters
began to depict contemporary life under the
colonial and sultanic rules in these Islamic
countries.
The movement was particular popular in
France. Eugene Delacroix (1798-1863) was
one of the first orientalist and Jean-Leon
Gerome (1824-1904) was one of the last.

flagrant fantasy differed from some of
the well-known examples of the French
variety.
One of the best-known British orientalist
painters was John Frederick Lewis, who
lived in Cairo for nine years.
β€œBeing an English gentleman,
however, Lewis could not simply
follow the French tradition of
eroticizing these women because
the conservative Victorian public
would have rejected his paintings
as immoral. He paintings sold
easily and for record sums. … The
challenge was to please the viewing
and buying public, while also
exploring and satisfying his own
interest in the exotic imagery of the
East.” Elizabeth Malcolm 1997.

Timeline
Edward Said (1935 – 2003) and Orientalism
Edward Said (pronounced as Sai-id) was a
professor at Columbia University. Said was
a Palestinian and an influential critic, known
best for his book Orientalism (1978). In his
book he concluded that Orientalist
scholarship in the West was and continues
to be inextricably tied to the imperialist
societies that produced it.
Said claimed a β€œsubtle and persistent
Eurocentric prejudice against Arabo-Islamic
peoples and their culture”. He argued that a
long tradition of false and romanticized
images of Asia and the Middle East in
Western culture had served as an implicit
justification for Europe and the US’ colonial
and imperial ambition. Just as fiercely, he
denounced the practice of Arab elites who
internalized the US and British orientalists’
ideas of Arabic culture.
From our very brief gleam on the subject,
this is particularly true in French orientalist
paintings that many of the images are pure
imagination. The Turkish Bath by Ingres
and numerous auctions of naked female
slaves are examples of this.
In all popular culture, you can find
examples of ethnic stereotypes and cultural
caricatures. Whether these are by
conspiratorial designs are difficult to say.
Example of this are the English is
hypocrite, the Irish is stupid, the Jew is
misery, the Chinese is inscrutable, the
Latino is hot blooded etc. However,
whenever there is a demands for certain
types of paintings and images, there will be
willing painters to supply. After all they
have to earn a living too.

One of the best-known British orientalist painters was John Frederick Lewis, who lived in Cairo for nine years.
  • 19. β€œBeing an English gentleman, however, Lewis could not simply follow the French tradition of eroticizing these women because the conservative Victorian public would have rejected his paintings as immoral. He paintings sold easily and for record sums. … The challenge was to please the viewing and buying public, while also exploring and satisfying his own interest in the exotic imagery of the East.” Elizabeth Malcolm 1997.

Said was a Palestinian and an influential critic, known best for his book Orientalism (1978). In his book he concluded that Orientalist scholarship in the West was and continues to be inextricably tied to the imperialist societies that produced it. Said claimed a β€œsubtle and persistent Eurocentric prejudice against Arabo-Islamic peoples and their culture”. He argued that a long tradition of false and romanticized images of Asia and the Middle East in Western culture had served as an implicit justification for Europe and the US’ colonial and imperial ambition. Just as fiercely, he denounced the practice of Arab elites who internalized the US and British orientalists’ ideas of Arabic culture.
  • 49. From our very brief gleam on the subject, this is particularly true in French orientalist paintings that many of the images are pure imagination. The Turkish Bath by Ingres and numerous auctions of naked female slaves are examples of this. In all popular culture, you can find examples of ethnic stereotypes and cultural caricatures. Whether these are by conspiratorial designs are difficult to say. Example of this are the English is hypocrite, the Irish is stupid, the Jew is misery, the Chinese is inscrutable, the Latino is hot blooded etc. However, whenever there is a demands for certain types of paintings and images, there will be willing painters to supply. After all they have to earn a living too. Lord of the Harem – Giraud (French)

Editor's Notes

  1. Encouraged by the success of Romanticism in portraying the exceptional and the exotic subjects. Several French painters travelled to North Africa and Middle East painting scenes of β€˜Oriental’ history and the contemporary life. Delacroix was one of the first and the most convincing. Many others followed, notably Gerome. Other preferred to used their imagination and let it run wild, depicting their version of the imaging β€˜Orient’, like Ingres A particular popular theme was the harem. Since no European man had ever been into a harem their works were mostly frictional. British painters like John Frederic Lewis and William Holman Hunt also embarked on their journey of discovery. Both men also spent part of their life living in the Middle East. They have also bought back images of what they experienced in the β€˜Orient’.
