An Egyptian Houri is a decorative figure study created by Carl Link in 1919. The image shows a woman in an exaggerated dance pose, bending sideways with her arms raised above her head. Long, transparent veils move around her body in broad curves, making the composition feel active even though the figure is frozen in a single moment.
The artwork is best described as an illustration rather than a traditional oil painting. Its clean outlines, flat areas of color, and lightly drawn fabric suggest a work made for print, publication, costume design, or theatrical presentation. The exact original medium is not firmly documented.
