About this work

A winged-less sphinx-like female figure reclines on a sandy shore strewn with shells, driftwood, and debris, gazing toward the viewer. Behind her, red-lit hills and the arches of a ruined aqueduct stand under a dramatic, cloud-filled sky. This painting by Elihu Vedder is dated 1879.
