#Tournemine
In 1831, French artists were sent to Algeria with the army to make quick drawings of towns, clothing, and daily life, which later fed a wave of North African scenes back in Paris. Those field notes mattered because Paris viewers wanted details that felt first-hand, not made up in the studio.
