Descriptif du lot

One of a series of drawings studying Moroccan costume, probably the fruits of Delacroix's visit to Morocco in the winter of 1832 as part of a diplomatic mission to the sultan. A line-drawing of the same model in the same pose is in the Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris (M. Arama, Le Maroc de Delacroix, Paris, 1987, pp. 29, 216), and a very similar study of a standing Moroccan was with Jean-Luc Baroni in early 2011.
