Concealed Beauty 452 II Print

In this painting Bedouin woman has been portrayed. Bedouins are, of course, not limited to Egypt, nor are they limited to a specific region of Egypt, though the more traditional Bedouins do normally inhabit the desert regions, including the Sinai and the Eastern and Western Deserts.Though how they dress depends on the weather and on personal taste, the Bedouin dresses for the desert, are layered and flowing robes absorbing the sun's hot rays while allowing cooling breezes to circulate. The Bedouin mostly winds a cloth around his head and neck to retard moisture loss that can lead to heat stroke and to shield his face against the harsh, dry sand. Women wear black dresses and head covers embroidered in tiny cross-stitch designs: blue for unmarried women, red for married. They cover their faces with a veil highlighted in the same stitches and often decorated with shells and coins. Most of the traditional Bedouins dress very modestly.
