“Arnaut Smoking” painted by the famous Orientalist artist Jean Leon Gerome, is an admirable proof of his excellent ability to portray simple subject matter in an exceptionally detailed and attractive manner.


In Arnaut Smoking from 1865, again Jean-Léon Gérôme reveals his fascination with other cultures here as his protagonist Arnaut is in Middle Eastern dress having just drawn smoke from a hookah pipe. The setting too is Middle Eastern and Islamic, as we see the background screen on which is fine and detailed tracery. The mood of the sitter seems to be one of self-absorption with his head lowered deep in thought. Arnaut is the oriental name for Albanian.
