I'm completely Googled out on these: 1 Who or what connects Arabia, Tarsus, Ethiopia. 2 Alloy of 5 parts copper and 1 part gold, used in cheap jewellery. 3 Painting style where a female figure is set in a voluptuous Middle Eastern context. 4 The editorial revision or correction of a manuscript. 5 French painter; cookery expert; harpist. ( I have a loose possibility of Jamet) 6 What does cricket have in common with fencing and weightlifting? And also missing logo 1. Any pointers in the right direction would be most appreciated.
Such paintings were a frequent subject for British 19th Century Orientalist painters . Odalisques in particular . They did however do other subjects such as market scenes .
Thanks for those thoughts.
At least I've got something to investigate now. Unfortunately it's not red gold! I did think of pinchbeck but that has no gold at all!
