[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 263542, member: 2844"]Or Western European Orientalist. The bolero jacket is original to the eastern Med, the jewellery is not. And I would expect dangling earrings. The little hat could be Ottoman. The girl's hair looks like a fashionable western haircut of the time, she just let it down for the portrait. Painters in Western Europe would have a few authentic costume pieces, add any jewellery and other details for an oriental look, and call the painting 'Odalisk' or something like it. Not authentic oriental, but lovely and good quality.[/QUOTE]
