"Odalisque" is a painting by Jean-Joseph-Benjamin Constant, a French artist known for his Orientalist works. The painting features a reclining woman, likely an odalisque, adorned in luxurious clothing and jewelry, on a plush couch covered in a leopard skin. The scene is set in a richly decorated interior, suggesting a palace or harem. Constant's meticulous detail and warm palette capture the opulent ambiance of the Ottoman Empire. The painting reflects the fascination with Eastern cultures that was popular among European artists in the late 19th century.
