English to French: La peinture orientaliste General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting
Source text - English This exhibition is about the paintings made by British artists of the ‘Orient’. I In this context ‘Orient’ meant those parts of the eastern Mediterranean world which could be accessed relatively easily, particularly after the development of steamboat and rail travel in the 1830s: Egypt, Palestine and Turkey. In these places, predominantly Muslim and at least nominally under the control of the Turkish Ottoman Empire, British artists sought to develop imagery which captured what they believed to be characteristic of the people, cities and landscapes of the region.
Translation - French Cette exposition est consacrée aux peintures orientalistes réalisées par les artistes britanniques. Représenté ici, l’Orient correspond aux régions situées à l’est de la Méditerranée, c’est-à-dire à l’Égypte, la Palestine et la Turquie. Dans les années 1830, grâce au développement de la flotte à vapeur et à l’essor du transport ferroviaire, ces pays deviennent alors plus accessibles qu’auparavant. De ces régions principalement musulmanes et sous l’emprise ottomane turc, les peintres britanniques ont cherché à dresser une imagerie, la plus proche selon eux, de leurs habitants, de leurs villes et de leurs paysages.
I am a freelance Art History translator who has worked for a number of leading art galleries in the UK and internationally. I specialise in Art History, but in particular international modern and British Art (1500 to the present day). I am always interested in taking on potential new projects for museums, galleries, auction and publishing houses.
