Catalogue Note
Cette composition a été peinte d'après deux photos faites au Maroc par Schmied, alors qu'il suivait le général Catroux dans sa deuxième campagne dans le sud marocain. Elle fut par la suite gravée par Théo Schmied, le fils de l'artiste avec des variantes notamment dans le fond et publiée dans Sud-marocain. Grand Atlas, Anti-Atlas, selon les textes du général Catroux (cf.Danuta Cichoka, Gustave Miklos, un grand oeuvre caché, éd Fata Libelli, Paris, 2013, p.150).
The present work was painted after two photos taken by Schmied in Morocco, while he was on a journey following general Coutroux in his campaign in southern Morocco. It was later engraved with slight differences notably in the background, by his son Théo Schmied and published in Sud-Marocain, Grand Atlas, Anti-Atlas, according to general Catroux (cf. Danuta Cichoka, Gustave Miklos, un grand oeuvre cache, éd Fata Libelli, Paris, 2013, p.150).
