拍品专文

Street Scene in Algiers is reflective of Louis Comfort Tiffany's travels to Algeria in the winter of 1876. The present watercolor appears to be a study for the painting titled Algerian Shops at the Baltimore Museum of Art (obj. no. 1973.14) with a similar composition and slight differences to the figures in the lower right plane.
