About the piece

Created in 1887 by the French artist Félix Ziem, this oil painting captures the atmospheric beauty of Khartoum at dusk. The composition is anchored by a brilliant central sunburst reflecting off the river, contrasted by the rhythmic, dark silhouettes of palm trees and brush along the banks.
