OriginalAn Egyptian Fellah woman with her child (Danish: En egyptisk fellahkvinde med sit barn), 1878. Let me just lie down in my finery among these monuments and ineffectually shade my little cherub from the sunset.
Reason
It's another painting by a (naturalised-)Danish woman artist; sue me. Big, beautiful, totally OTT romantisied for the European market; considered a bit racy in its day and tucked away out of sight.
