This is a study by Russian artist Vasily Polenov. The artwork depicts three figures: two women and a man. The women are identified as "Hannarie" and "Fatma." The man, who appears to be holding a donkey, is depicted in a simplified style, while the women are more detailed. The artwork showcases the artist's interest in capturing the people and culture of the Middle East, a region he travelled to extensively during his life. The brushstrokes and colors are bold and expressive, characteristic of Polenov's later works. This study could have been part of a larger work or a preparation for an oil painting.
