Selling Slaves in Rome is one of a series of six slave market scenes painted by Jean-Léon Gérôme that took place in 19th century Istanbul in ancient Rome. In
these slave markets, men would advertise female slaves and auction them off to
the highest bidders.
Selling Slaves in Rome depicts the buying and selling of naked women, reinforcing
the idea that women were objects created for men's pleasure. However, these
slave market scenes are among Gérôme's most popular works. In the painting, Gérôme recreated with neoclassical delicacy the shocking scene he saw in the
Islamic slave market, where the stripped female slave, naked, stands on the
stage to be auctioned off. The merchants compete for the price of the slave
with their fingers outstretched, a metaphor for the price of the slave, and the
female slave, bewildered, shields her face from her discomfort and is at the
mercy of her fate. This degrading image, which was created using both
imagination and observation, painted an odd, aggressive, and repulsive picture
of Islamic civilization. As France's colonial empire spread across North
Africa, such paintings catered to its belief in its moral superiority.
