The Finding of Moses is a painting by an artist trained at what school?
The Finding of Moses (Alma-Tadema painting) The Finding of Moses is a 1904 painting by the Anglo-Dutch artist Lawrence Alma-Tadema. It was one of his last major works before his death in 1912, but quickly fell out of favour; according to rumour, it was sold in the 1960s for its frame. After appreciation of Victorian painting was renewed towards the end of the 20h century, it was described in an auction catalogue in 1995 as "the undisputed masterpiece of [Alma-Tadema's] last decade, as well as a late (perhaps the final?) flowering of the nineteenth-century's love-affair with Egypt". It was sold at auction in 2010 for nearly US$36 million.
