James Tissot's "Pharaoh's Daughter Has Moses Brought to Her" (1902) depicts a scene from the biblical story of Moses. The painting shows Pharaoh's daughter, accompanied by two maidservants, discovering the infant Moses in a basket floating in the Nile River. The scene is painted in a realistic style, with detailed depictions of the figures and the landscape. Tissot was known for his meticulous detail and accurate depiction of biblical scenes, which made his works popular with a wide audience. This painting, like many others in Tissot's series, The Life of Our Lord Jesus Christ, exemplifies the artist's ability to capture the grandeur and drama of the Bible through his art.
