| Zusammenfassung: | The ‘exotic’ carries with it implications of foreignness, curiosity, and allure. In visual art, the artist establishes the ‘exotic’ female sitter as a passive object of the active male gaze. How is this situation is affected when a European Christian woman artist represents an ‘exotic’ sitter, such as a semi-nude Black woman or a Persian Muslim male dignitary, for a public audience? Can we even label these sitters as ‘exotic’? This paper will address those questions by examining Marie-Guillemine Benoist’s Portrait of a Negress (1800) and Césarine-Henriette-Flore Davin-Mirvault’s Portrait of Askar Khan Afshar, Ambassador from Persia (1808). |
