Boulanger began producing works of Orientalist subjects following his first visit to Algeria in 1845. He returned to North Africa multiple times throughout his career, including a trip with his friend Jean-Léon Gérôme in 1872. This refined study demonstrates both the artist’s ethnographic interest in costume and his sacrifice of a degree of detail in favor of evoking the model’s pensive mood.
