About the piece
Created in 1883 by the Spanish master Carlos de Haes, this luminous work depicts a group of figures gathered near a temple ruin along the banks of the Nile. The vertical composition emphasizes the soaring height of the palms and the monumental scale of the architecture, reflecting the Romantic era's fascination with the history and atmosphere of the Orient.
