"Arabs with their Camels by Temple Ruins" is a 19th-century painting by British artist Joseph-Austin Benwell (1816–1886). Known for his Orientalist works, Benwell frequently depicted scenes from North Africa and the Middle East, capturing the fascination of Victorian England with these exotic locales. This particular painting continues in that tradition, presenting a picturesque and romanticized view of Arab life.

The artwork portrays a group of Arabs with their camels, possibly traders or nomads, set against the backdrop of ancient temple ruins. The ruins evoke the long history of the region and the passage of civilizations, a common theme in Orientalist art. The figures and animals are rendered with attention to detail and cultural attire, suggesting a moment of rest or perhaps trade and communication among the travelers.

Benwell's use of light and shadow, as well as his skillful composition, brings a sense of depth and realism to the scene. The painting is imbued with a sense of tranquility and the vastness of the desert landscape, inviting viewers to contemplate the lives and stories of the depicted characters.

As a notable work within Benwell's oeuvre, "Arabs with their Camels by Temple Ruins" exemplifies the artist's contribution to Orientalist painting in Britain. It reflects the 19th-century European interest in the 'Orient' as a place of mystery and otherness, a perspective that has since been critiqued for its colonial and exoticizing overtones.

The painting is significant for its artistic merit and as a cultural artifact of its time, offering insight into the ways in which the Middle East was imagined and represented in Victorian art. While the painting is a testament to Benwell's skill as an artist, it also serves as a historical document of the era's attitudes and perceptions.
