About the Item
Arabian Charger Seller" by Antonio Rivas (Spanish, 1845-1911) stands as an exquisite example of Orientalism, a 19th-century artistic movement that sought to depict the rich and diverse cultures of the East. Rivas, a master of his craft, delves into this genre with a keen eye for detail and a dedication to authenticity that brings the scene to life.
In this antique watercolor on paper laid to board, the artist skillfully captures the essence of the era. The central figure, a black lady adorned in traditional attire and jewelry, stands on a beautifully patterned rug, offering porcelain dishes with intricate designs—a testament to the fascination with Eastern aesthetics prevalent in the 19th century.
The architectural backdrop, reflecting Arabic influences, adds to the allure of the Orientalist narrative, transporting viewers to a bygone era. Rivas' meticulous rendering of the setting evokes a sense of nostalgia, emphasizing the antique charm that permeates the scene.
The dimensions of 29 3/4 x 21 1/4 inches provide a generous canvas for Rivas to showcase his mastery, allowing for the intricate details of the Orientalist tableau to unfold. The artist's signature, "A.A. Rivas," in the lower left corner not only authenticates the piece but also connects it to the legacy of a 19th-century artist exploring the world through a lens of cultural curiosity.
Having traversed through time, "Arabian Charger Seller" possesses a provenance that includes a notable sale at Susanin's Auctioneers & Appraisers in Chicago on October 24, 2015, where it claimed Lot 6302. This further solidifies its status as both an artistic gem and a historical artifact, inviting viewers to appreciate the intersection of Orientalism, antique allure, and the 19th-century artistic vision encapsulated in this remarkable work by Antonio Rivas.
