Description
Français : Shéhérazade et Chahriar ou Sujet tiré des Mille et une Nuits. Tableau probablement exposé au Salon de 1842 (no 823) sous le titre Sujet tiré des Mille et une Nuits.
Shéhérazade conte chaque nuit au Sultan Shahryar des histoires merveilleuses qui enchantent son auditeur. En prolongeant la narration toute la nuit sans que son dénouement n’en soit encore révélé au lever du jour, reportant la conclusion à la nuit suivante, elle captive Shahryar. L’héroïne échappe ainsi au serment que s’est fait le tyran : exécuter chaque matin la compagne nuptiale, épousée la veille, en vengeance de l’infidélité de sa première épouse.
English: Scheherazade and Shahryar (One Thousand and One Nights). Probably exhibited at the Salon of 1842 (# 823)
