"Les Chérifas" is an orientalist painting by the French artist Benjamin Jean Joseph Constant, created in 1876. This work is an example of the 19th-century European fascination with the Middle East and North Africa, which was often characterized by an exotic and romanticized vision of the region and its people. The painting depicts a group of chérifas, or noblewomen, in an opulent interior, possibly a harem, which reflects the Western stereotype of Eastern sensuality and hidden luxury.

Constant was known for his detailed and vivid portrayal of Eastern subjects, and "Les Chérifas" is no exception. The painting is notable for its rich color palette, intricate patterns, and the luxurious textiles that adorn the figures and their surroundings. The artist's skill in capturing the effects of light and texture contributes to the overall opulence and allure of the scene.

As a prominent work within Constant's oeuvre, "Les Chérifas" has been discussed in the context of orientalism in art, a term coined by the scholar Edward Said in his 1978 book "Orientalism," to describe the often stereotypical depiction of Eastern societies by Western artists and writers. Constant's painting is a quintessential example of this genre, encapsulating the complex interplay of fantasy, power dynamics, and cultural representation that characterizes the orientalist artistic tradition.

"Les Chérifas" is part of a larger body of work by Constant that contributed to his reputation as a leading orientalist painter of his time. His works are held in various museum collections and continue to be studied for their artistic merit as well as their cultural and historical significance within the broader discourse of orientalism in European art.
