| 8 | !! This artwork provides examples of: |
| 9 | |
| 10 | * OneWordTitle: The title is simply ''Odalisque'', which is how Orientalists called the members of a Turkish harem. |
| 11 | * RavenHairIvorySkin: Pale skin was considered attractive in high society, and Lefebvre goes so far as to depict her as if she was made of ivory. |
| 12 | * RecliningVenus: The painting depicts a woman reclining nude on a couch. Unlike most examples, she is facing away from the viewer. The painting's very name is itself an alternate term applied to the Reclining Venus trope. |
| 13 | * ShoutOut: Lefebvre's ''Odalisque'' (1874) features the same pose as the ''Art/GrandeOdalisque'' (1814). Minus the ArtisticLicenseAnatomy, of course. |
