Moroccan in blue 1932

"Moroccan in Blue" (1932) is a portrait by Russian artist Zinaida Serebriakova. The work depicts a man in traditional Moroccan attire, with a blue turban and robe, seated with his hands clasped in his lap. The subject's contemplative expression and the bold use of blue and white tones creates a striking image. The composition and use of pastel contribute to a sense of both realism and stylized beauty, typical of Serebriakova's work.
