Is. van Mens - Orientalist city scene

Beautiful and colorful oriental painting by Isidorus Van Mens (1890-1985).
He was a Dutch draftsman, lithographer, etcher, painter and wood engraver. He gained his artistic knowledge at various academies in Brussels. Isidorus van Mens was a versatile artist who will be best known to the general public for his Orientalist depictions. Although the most common subjects are situated in North Africa, especially Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia, Isidoor van Mens also visited other countries. He loved to travel and was very interested in the daily life of other peoples.
He is one of the few Dutch 20th century orientalists, but is also often regarded internationally as a Belgian because he lived there for a large part of his life.

The work is a North African city scene.
