Italian Orientalism<\/b><\/h2>\n

Neapolitan Orientalists<\/b><\/h3>\n

The study of history was introduced in the 19th century and progress in transportation and travel brought geography into the imaginations of Neapolitans.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The opening of the Suez Canal<\/span><\/h2>\n

The opening of the Suez Canal<\/strong> in 1869 provided direct access from the Mediterranean to the Horn of Africa, where Italy embarked on its colonial policy. Such conquests did not immediately affect painters. Except for Vincenzo Marinelli<\/strong>, Marco De Gregorio,<\/strong> and Ettore Cercone<\/strong><\/a>, they were rarely travelers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yet they managed to arouse in bourgeois society a taste for the exotic, thereby fueling a market and a passion for collecting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Orientalism took shape in Naples thanks to an imaginary world created by painters, many of them foreign like Jean-L\u00e9on J\u00e9r\u00f4me (backed by company Goupil & Cie), Benjamin Constant, and Horace Vernet who spent a lot of time in Italy and Algeria<\/strong>, and it was strongly associated with verism. <\/span><\/p>\n

A typical example of Neapolitan Orientalism in our gallery is <\/span>portrait of Two Oriental Women by Ettore Cercone<\/span>.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n
