Nice Horus - But you need to tell where it is from, what is the time period, and who it depicts.

^I agree but I actually don't know where it's from, what time period or who it depicts.

Would be nice if someone could help me out there.

Cheers.

This paintings would be more of what is classified as Orientaliste art than Moorish.
That i know of,Moorish art mostly pertains to mosaics and types of architecture like those typical in countries like Morocco,Tunisia and Algeria.This 3 are known together as the Magreb.

I'm interested in depictions of the Moors; I'm not neccessarily interested in Orientaliste paintings unless it depicts the Moors.

Head of a Moor
Alexandre Georges Henri Regnault (French, 1843-1871)
At the same time that French impressionist painters were freely interpreting their modern world, artists such as Regnault were creating imaginative views of Islamic history and society that fed a European and American interest in the exoticism of the Near East. Often expecting to find a politically and morally decadent culture given to capricious violence and sexual excess, orientalist painters and writers traveled to Turkey, Egypt, and North Africa along paths cleared by adventurers and European colonialism.

Why? You don't have anything to do with Moors.

You definitely do not look like one. LOL!

You don't have anything to do with North Africa, be it Northwest, Northcentral, or Northeast.

Shouldn't you be more concerned with West Africa? Or do you feel that "West Africa" is lacking so you feel the need to obsess "North Africa".
