EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Eastern Reminiscences, c. 1874" we are transported back in time to witness a moment of serene leisure and contemplation. Painted by the talented John William Waterhouse, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 31x24 cm and is now held in a private collection. The focal point of the image is a graceful female figure, seated comfortably in an oriental setting. Dressed in traditional costume, she exudes an air of elegance and mystery that captures our attention. With her full-length pose and relaxed posture, it is evident that she is indulging in a moment of relaxation and introspection. As we observe closely, we notice the woman holding a cigarette delicately between her fingers. The act of smoking adds an intriguing layer to the scene, hinting at both rebellion against societal norms and perhaps even seduction. Waterhouse's meticulous attention to detail shines through as he skillfully depicts every brushstroke with precision. The rich colors and intricate patterns transport us further into the enchanting world he has created. This painting beautifully encapsulates the Orientalist movement prevalent during its creation - a fascination with Eastern cultures that permeated Western art at the time. It serves as a reminder of how art can evoke emotions while simultaneously providing glimpses into different eras and cultural perspectives. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are invited to immerse ourselves in this mesmerizing piece; allowing us to reminisce about times gone
