The "Field of Rest Cemetery of the Green Mosque" is an oil painting by Jean-Léon Gérôme, renowned for his Orientalist works. The painting depicts a cemetery in a Middle Eastern setting with a grand mosque featuring a turquoise-colored dome in the background. The scene is bathed in the warm light of a clear day, with a few figures gathering in the foreground. Gérôme's meticulous attention to detail and realistic rendering are evident in the intricate architectural features of the mosque and the serene atmosphere of the cemetery. This painting showcases Gérôme's fascination with Eastern cultures and his ability to capture the essence of a foreign land.
