The Casbah Of Algiers. Jules ROUSSET (1840-1921), Orientalism, Algeria
Nice view of an alley of the Casbah of Algiers painted on the pattern. A beautiful atmosphere rendered by the powerful light effects and by a certain counting excluding any anectode, perhaps inviting us to imagine the noises of the city than to be satisfied with a free picturesque. Jules Rousset (1840-1921) was born in Aillant-sur-Milleron (Loiret 45). Portrait of landscape and orientalist painter. He was the pupil of Léon Cogniet and Isidore Pils at the Fine Arts in Paris and exhibited at the show from 1867. He exhibited paintings on Algeria in 1888 at the Blois show.
