Bilde 33 BY JEAN-LÉON GÉRÔME FRENCH, 1824-1904 ARNAUT OFFICER (OFFICIER ARNAUTE) CATALOGUE NOTE Gerald Ackerman has suggested that this exquisite picture anticipates one of Gérôme's most highly acclaimed works, the Recrues égyptiennes traversant le désert (private collection) (fig. 1). In this more expansive work, the Arnaut officer is situated at left, with additional 'recruits' behind him. Gérôme and his traveling companion in the Middle East, the sculptor Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi, had witnessed first-hand the forced enrollment of Egyptian peasants by Albanian soldiers (Arnauts) in Asyut, a large town located about 230 miles south of Cairo, in February of 1856. The trauma of this experience might have encouraged Gérôme to abandon the present work, which remained in his studio unfinished, for nearly forty years, and focus more intently on the figures of the handcuffed fellahin themselves.
