About the piece
Painted in 1855 by British artist Thomas Seddon, this atmospheric work depicts the Pyramids of Giza during a dramatic sunset. Radiant light rays pierce through the sky, reflecting in the calm waters of the foreground where ibises wade among lush vegetation, creating a serene and monumental scene typical of Victorian Orientalist painting.
