"Red Sea" is an 1880 painting by Marianne North, a renowned British botanical artist known for her detailed and vibrant depictions of flora. This serene landscape, likely painted during one of her travels, captures the tranquility of a sunset over a calm sea. The soft hues of pink and lavender in the sky, reflecting in the gentle water, evoke a sense of peace and vastness, characteristic of North's artistic style.
