"An Arab with a Musket" is a study for the larger work titled "The Swooping Terror of the Desert" by the 19th-century German-British artist Carl Haag. Known for his Orientalist themes, Haag's work often depicted scenes from the Middle East and North Africa with a focus on the cultural and ethnographic details of the region. "An Arab with a Musket" serves as a preparatory work, showcasing Haag's meticulous approach to capturing the intricate details and characteristics of his subjects before executing the final painting.

The study is significant for its portrayal of a solitary Arab figure, armed with a musket, set against a sparse desert backdrop. This piece reflects the period's fascination with the exotic and the romanticized view of the Arab world. Haag's attention to detail in the subject's attire, weaponry, and poise speaks to his commitment to authenticity and his skill as a draftsman. The work is a testament to the artist's ability to convey a sense of narrative and atmosphere, which would be further elaborated upon in the completed work "The Swooping Terror of the Desert."

Carl Haag (1820–1915) was a notable figure in the Orientalist art movement, and his works are considered important for their historical and artistic value. "An Arab with a Musket" exemplifies the genre's characteristics and Haag's own artistic legacy. The study and its related final painting would be of interest to scholars of Orientalism, art historians, and those studying the depiction of non-European subjects in Western art of the 19th century.
