LUDWIG DEUTSCH (1855-1935)
THE HOUR OF PRAYER
Signed, oil on canvas (by L. Besnard, Paris)
70 x 51cm.
* A late work, post 1909, when Deutsch tended towards a less meticulous technique in favour of more Impressionistic lighting effects and a plainer, uncluttered background. Compare with `Muslim Cleric at Prayer', 73 x 54cm, (Christies New York, April 12th 2007, lot 7)
