Battle Scene: Arabs Making a Detour
Adolf Schreyer German
Not on view
Schreyer's first exhibited works were military and historical scenes. After a study trip to France and North Africa, he settled in Paris from 1862 until 1870, when he returned to Frankfurt. In Paris he exhibited Arab scenes that were admiringly compared to those of Delacroix and Fromentin. He did not date his paintings and often repeated motifs. A reversed image of the horseman in this work appears as the central figure of Arab Warrior (Milwaukee Art Center).
