Description

Seated on his throne, an Ottoman dignitary sporting an aigrette, symbol of his rank, receives his messenger, listening with anticipation to the news he has to impart. The fabrics worn by both men - the master's silk kaftan and the messenger's Moroccon hooded shawl, are observed in immaculate detail. Their bearing and dress bring to mind Rudolf Ernst’s and Ludwig Deutsch’s guards.

Pujol favoured Hispano-Moresque interiors which reflect his Spanish background. Here, the interior appears to have been inspired by the Alhambra Palace or the Madinat al-Zahra Palace near Cordoba; or by the 1878 Exposition Universelle in Paris which included elaborate reproductions of the Alhambra Palace.[1]

Licensing

[edit]
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1905, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
