"Desert Nomads" is a painting by Italian artist Giulio Rosati (1857-1919). The painting depicts a scene of desert life, with three figures standing in front of a tent. One of the figures is riding a horse, while the other two are on foot. The painting's realism and depiction of everyday life in the desert make it a captivating example of Orientalist art. This genre of art was popular in the 19th century and focused on the culture and people of the Middle East and North Africa.
