The scene is a luxurious bedchamber in the Sultan’s harem during the Ottoman Empire, as depicted in a detailed 19th-century Orientalist oil painting by Jean-Léon Gérôme. There are rich fabrics with embroidered pillows and tapesstries, while the walls are covered in mosaic tiles with geometric Arabic patterns. The focus of the painting is two nude women reclining on luxurious pillows and rich fabrics, kissing and caressing each other. The two women have brown brunette hair, different skin tones, and various hair styles. The lighting is dim and romantic, lit by oil lamps and candles.
