Catalogue Note
Jan Baptist Huysmens fut élève a l'Académie des Beaux Arts d'Anvers de 1843 à 1849. Il voyagea ensuite en Grèce, Turquie, Syrie, Palestine, Egypte et Algérie. Ses tableaux orientalistes représentent des scènes très animées et vivantes avec des coloris puissants et des détails de costumes et d'architectures bien observés.
