DiasshowThe Sultan's Tiger
205.0 x 124.0 cm
Jean-Joseph Benjamin-Constant (1845 – 1902)
Jean-Joseph Benjamin-Constant (1845-1902) var en fransk maler kendt for sine romantiske og detaljerede orientalistiske billeder, portrætter og imponerende vægmalerier. Oplev hans farverige verden af Marokko og historiske fortællinger!
This painting appears to have been inspired by Victor Hugo’s 1827 poem “La Douleur du pacha” (The Pasha’s Grief). In the poem, a fictional Ottoman potentate forsakes his responsibilities, including his domains and his subjects, owing to implacable sadness: “What’s wrong with this pasha, whom war is calling / And who, sad and dreamy, cries like a woman? . . . / His Nubian tiger has died.”
