Provenance & Note: Gharbaoui received a fellowship from the Italian Government in 1958 and he moved to Rome where this work was executed. It was then exhibited at the Centro delle Relazioni Italo Arabe, Via di Villa Ruffo, Roma in 1958 in an exhibition of the work of two Moroccan Artist's Jilali Gharbaoui and Mohammed Melehi. At this exhibition Gharbaoui had 28 works on show. This work is inscribed N.23 to the reverse which may indicate the exhibition number. The exhibition was reviewed in Levante magazine in an article "Moroccan Painters at the Italian-Arab Centre, review of an exhibition of two young Moroccan Artist's; Jilali Gharbaoui and Mohammed Melehi", by Professor Ilda Ricasoli.
During his stay in Europe, Gharbaoui became interested in the work of the Impressionists, Dutch painting and German Expressionism, leading to his exploration of abstract painting. He is regarded as one of the founders of modern abstract painting in Morocco.
