}}Arab Woman is a watercolor painting by John Singer Sargent. Completed in either the late 19th or early 20th century, the painting is currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[1]

Description

Prominent American painter John Singer Sargent took two notable trips to the middle east during his lifetime; the first trip was to Greece, Egypt, and Turkey in 1890, while the second was to the-then Ottoman provinces of Syria and Palestine in 1905. These trips spurred Sargent to create a number of works of art concerning various subjects.[1]

Arab Woman was produced by Sargent during his one of his travels in the middle east. The image, done in watercolor and gouache on woven white paper, depicts a veiled Muslim woman wearing a white niqāb. According to an inscription left by Sargent on the painting, the work is incomplete.[1]
