Jean-Leon Gerome (1824-1904) was a French painter and sculptor in what is now called the style of Academicism. This work is titled The Vendor of Rugs. From his numerous journeys to the East, Gerome brought back many curious memoranda of picturesque scenes, which he subsequently converted into brilliant canvases. He excelled in reproducing the cresting beauty of shimmering carpets and the rippling sheen of silken treasures.
