Description
This Large Oil on Canvas ‘Bedouin Oasis’ by Frederick Goodall (UK) 1822-1904 is a stunning painting and in the original gilt frame. Frederick Goodall is an artist of significant fame and his works are exhibited in some of the most important Art Galleries and Museums in the world. Goodall visited Egypt twice; in 1858 and again in 1870, both times travelling and camping with Bedouin tribesmen. On his second visit in 1870, he lived at Saqqara, near the Pyramids with the aim of directly observing Bedouin lifestyles. After his return to England (when this painting was executed in 1877), Goodall painted some beautiful Egyptian themed paintings and this is one. The Egyptian theme was prominent in his work, with 170 paintings being exhibited at the Royal Academy over 46 years.
