Egyptian night 1912

"Egyptian Night" is a painting by Martiros Sarian, a prominent Armenian artist, created in 1912. The painting depicts a nighttime scene in Egypt, with a lone figure silhouetted against the backdrop of a village with palm trees, rendered in a vibrant blue palette. The scene is reminiscent of a serene and peaceful night in a foreign land, with the artist's use of color and form creating an almost dreamlike atmosphere. Sarian’s style is often characterized by bold colors and simplified forms, which are evident in this piece. The painting, with its evocative subject matter and striking use of color, offers a glimpse into Sarian's unique perspective on the world.
