"Odalisca" is a painting by the Spanish artist Francisco Masriera y Manovens (1842–1902), created in 1880. This work is a prime example of Orientalist painting, a genre popular in the 19th century, where Western artists depicted their imagined views of the East, often characterized by exoticism and romanticism. The term "odalisque" refers to a female slave or concubine in a harem, particularly within the context of the Ottoman Empire, and was a common subject for Orientalist painters who often portrayed such figures as embodiments of sensuality and mystery.

Masriera y Manovens, a Catalan painter, was known for his detailed and ornate works, and "Odalisca" is no exception. The painting showcases his skill in rendering textures and patterns, as well as his ability to capture the allure and stillness of the odalisque figure. The subject is typically depicted reclining in a luxurious setting, surrounded by rich fabrics and intricate architectural details, which reflect the artist's fascination with the Near East.

"Odalisca" is part of a broader cultural phenomenon where European artists of the time indulged in the fantasy and allure of the 'Other', often ignoring the realities of the cultures they portrayed. Masriera y Manovens' work is a testament to the popularity of Orientalism in European fine arts and continues to be studied for its aesthetic qualities as well as its place within the historical context of Eurocentric representation of Eastern cultures.

The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it has been exhibited in various art exhibitions that explore the themes of Orientalism and 19th-century European art. As with many Orientalist works, "Odalisca" has been the subject of both admiration for its artistic merit and critique for its cultural representation.
