"Study of Three Arabs" is a work by British painter John Frederick Lewis, known for his detailed and realistic portrayals of Middle Eastern life. This study, likely a preparatory sketch for a larger painting, depicts three Arab men in traditional attire, conveying the artist's interest in capturing the nuances of their dress and posture. The loose, gestural style of the drawing suggests a quick but observant study, highlighting the immediacy of Lewis's observation.
