Painting by john lavery, oil on panel titled "the housetop, evening", dated 1914. This painting was painted during the painter's moroccan period. Indeed, in 1891, the painter left for morocco with a first stopover in tangier[2], the opportunity for him to captivate the moorish essence of morocco through several paintings of anthropological value, such as here, where the moroccan female caftan is painted and in particular, the mansouria (moroccan female pageantry) is also present on the painting. Date: 1914.
