About the piece

Painted in 1907 by Henri Émilien Rousseau, this Orientalist panel depicts a moment of repose in a bright North African landscape. The composition focuses on two figures mounted on spirited grey and white horses beside a crumbling stone mausoleum, rendered with a luminous palette and confident, impressionistic brushwork.
