Title: The Nubian Guard Artist: Ludwig Deutsch (Austrian/French, 1855-1935) Date: 1902 Genre: portraiture Movement: Orientalism Medium: oil on panel Dimensions: 65 cm (25.5 in) high x 46.5 cm (18.3 in) wide Location: private collection

Ludwig Deutsch came from a well-to-do Jewish family in Vienna and studied at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts. In 1878, he moved to Paris to study with noted Orientalist painter Leopold Carl Müller. Two years later, Deutsch settled in Paris permanently; after gaining French citizenship in 1919, he began to refer to himself as Louis Deutsch.

Much of Deutsch's subject matter, such as the painting seen here, was based upon his trips to Egypt in the 1880s and 1890s. (From 1882 onward, the Khedivate of Egypt, nominally an autonomous state within the Ottoman Empire, was in fact a British protectorate.) Deutsch brought back many Egyptian objects that he would use time and again as props in his genre scenes and portraits.
