during the 19th century, orientalist painting movement also developed. the drawings of the french painters jean-auguste-dominique ingres and eugene delacroix, or the english painter william holman hunt are important examples of this movement. they depicted the east as something different, dangerous, wild, sexual, often because of their imagination and not because of the reality. for example, the french painter ingres drew images of nude oriental women using ancient greek and roman sculptures rather than real models. it would have been very difficult to persuade a woman in the arab and indian world to pose naked.
