Intimate Outsiders: The Harem in Ottoman and Orientalist Art and Travel Literature - Objects / Histories
Mary Roberts
Brings to light a body of harem imagery that was created through a dynamic process of cultural exchange. The author focuses on images produced by nineteenth-century European artists and writers who were granted access to harems in the urban centres of Istanbul and Cairo. These Europeans were "intimate outsiders" within the women's quarters.
