Description (auto translated): A group of Turkish women sitting on the ground in a landscape near Constantinople see a phenomenon in the form of a human figure (sign?) In the air. It seems like an old underpainting comes through the paint, but the hazy mental apparition in the sky is indeed intended. What story is the basis of this painting is unknown. Maybe Vanmour a Turkish folktale imaged or the opium smoking women the hallucinations? c. 1720 - c. 1737 H 44 cm × W 58 cm
