Orientalism is a special direction in art aimed at conveying various national elements, motifs, and stylistic techniques of the oriental genre. A large number of sculptures on the theme of the Arab East in a bright, ethnographically accurate reproduced composition make up a separate species. The interest of Europeans in the East in the XIX-XX centuries was most evident in art. The fashion for "ethnic" masterpieces in painting and sculpture, in interior design, has literally overwhelmed the Western world.
