About the Item

This Egyptian desert scene "An Oasis in the Desert" depicts a group of a people pitching a tent near a cluster of palm trees in view of the Ancient Egyptian Pyramids. Painted in large gestural strokes, Alott skillfully emulates the desert haze in oil paint. Formerly belonging to the Brooklyn Museum, it is undoubtedly unique. The light blue of the sky beautifully contrasts with the yellows and oranges of the desert and figure grouping below. Alott's attention to detail shines when examining the robes of the people and their animals. Artist: Robert Alott Austrian, 1850-1910 An Oasis in the Desert Signed R.
