"Portrait of an Arab" is a notable work by French painter Émile Jean-Horace Vernet, a renowned historical and orientalist painter of the 19th century. Completed in 1831, the painting belongs to the Orientalist genre and reflects Vernet's fascination with images of the exotic 'other'. Depicting an unidentified Arab man in traditional dress against a barren, isolated landscape, the portrait is a powerful study of individual human expression and cultural specificity.

Vernet crafted the painting during his trip to Algeria, which was then under the French. His experiences and observations of the North African region significantly influenced his artistic direction, as typified through the "Portrait of an Arab". The painting stands out for its careful attention to detail, from the traditional attire the subject is wearing, to the intricate patterns and textures, highlighting Vernet's amazing ability as a portraitist. It also reflects the orientalist influence of the period, using diverse cultural attributes as sources of visual fascination and artistic inspiration.

With the "Portrait of an Arab," Vernet delivers a remarkable portrayal that is both intimate and societal, managing to spotlight an individual's distinctiveness while also representing the broader cultural and traditional aspects of the Arab people. The painting remains a significant part of Vernet's body of work and an invaluable contribution to the Orientalist art canon. Its current location and ownership remain unknown.
