**Description:**
Embark on a visual journey through Egyptian cultural heritage with this original vintage oil painting featuring the captivating figure of Almah العالمة, a rural belly dancer, skillfully signed by the artist.

- **Signed Art:** The painting is adorned with the artist's signature, adding a personalized touch to this vintage masterpiece.
- **Dimensions:** Unframed, the painting measures a striking 50 cm in width and 71 cm in length, showcasing its beauty in a compact yet impactful size.

**Condition:**
- The painting is in very good condition, preserving its vintage charm and historical allure.
  
**Note:**
We specialize in the sale of vintage and antique paintings, each possessing a captivating allure. Some artworks may exhibit signs of age, such as dust accumulation, and may require restoration. This particular painting, while undeniably beautiful, currently bears some dust particles. At SAHSAH, transparency is our priority. We bring attention to the painting's current state to facilitate informed decisions by our customers.

Understanding the delicate nature of art restoration, we choose not to undertake in-house restoration due to our limited expertise. Dust, a common occurrence over time, can be professionally addressed to revive the original beauty of the artwork. We advocate for open communication and recommend professional intervention for restoration, ensuring the preservation of its authenticity. Your awareness of the painting's condition is integral to its value, as the presence of dust does not diminish its intrinsic worth.

Consider DIY restoration if you possess the necessary skills or opt for professional restoration to breathe new life into this cultural gem. At SAHSAH, we honor the integrity of art, and your investment in this vintage painting is a testament to the enduring legacy of Egyptian cultural elegance.

NOTE:  شاع في مصر اسم "العالمة" كإشارة إلى من تحترف (الرقص والغناء) معًا وهو اسم ليس له سند في قواميس اللغة العربية، كما يقول الباحث، فالكلمة نفسها تحمل معاني مفارقة لما وقر في الذهن عن كلمة عالمة التي تقوم بالغناء في الأفراح والصالات.
