About the piece
Painted by Paul Pascal in 1884, this Orientalist landscape captures a serene moment in North Africa. The composition features a traveler with a donkey navigating a sun-drenched lane, beautifully framed by the textured fronds of towering palm trees and the stark white of a mud-brick wall. Pascal’s masterful use of light and a warm, earthy palette evokes the quiet atmosphere of a Mediterranean afternoon.
