Eugène Delacroix's "Arabs of Oran" is a lithograph print from 1833, depicting two Arabs in repose against a distant landscape. The artist, known for his Romantic style, captures the figures with expressive detail and evocative use of light and shadow. This print, part of a series of works inspired by Delacroix's travels in North Africa, provides a glimpse into the artist's fascination with the region's culture and people, and his ability to translate his observations into evocative imagery.
