Lawrence Alma-Tadema

The Finding of Moses

US$ 678.00

Pharaoh’s daughter is carried in procession along the Nile with the found infant beside her, the whole party moving through flowers, linen and hard Egyptian sunlight. Alma-Tadema spent two years on the picture and researched every object in it. It sold for a record sum and then disappeared into private hands for most of the twentieth century.

Artist

Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836-1912) was born in Friesland and settled in London, where he became the most commercially successful painter of the Victorian era. He reconstructed the ancient world with archaeological precision and a modern eye for marble, water and skin. His reputation collapsed after his death and recovered a century later.
