Seems likely this is by Bruno Piglhein Here
That does not help with the subject matter but looks like he was fond of painting ladies in various stages of undress

Yup, it was him, he did a few with the same lady, it's 'The Egyptian Sword Dancer'. 1891.

Nice pair of Yataghans...

Looks better in colour.

I was entertained by an Egyptian Sword Dancer in a bedu tent near Giza during a meal once. Bit more clothing tho. The wife and my son were with me.
