Original – The composition is diagonal, with the woman on the right holding up a mirror while the one on the left appears to be applying make-up from a bottle. The figure in the top right corner of the picture is apparently greeting a visitor, whose arrival also attracts the attention of the woman on the left. There is a sense that the arrival of a visitor is unexpected or sudden.

Reason: Own article, Google file, painting by $Renoir$ . Also known as Interior of a Harem in Montmartre or Parisian Women Dressed in Algerian costumes, is a painting by Pierre-Auguste Renoir from 1872. The painting was created in the remembrance and homage to Eugène Delacroix's similar painting Women of Algiers in their Apartment (from 1834, now Louvre)
