. English: This is a fine example of Guillaume Régamey art he devoted almost entirely to the depiction of horses and horsemen. This painting shows three Algerian Spahis cavaliers descending a declivity in the desert and a man on foot driving two laden mules. The bright light and subject matter is characteristic of the Orientalist movement, a 19th-century phenomenon, which pervaded French art by combining elements of Romanticism (such as the attraction to distant and Middle East settings) and Realism in the objective rendering of the figures. Arab Horse Soldiers; Spahis, Guillaume Régamey, 18
