"Pharaoh And His Army Engulfed By The Red Sea" is a monumental painting by the American artist Frederick Arthur Bridgman, completed in 1900. Bridgman, known for his detailed and evocative depictions of Orientalist themes, captures a dramatic biblical event in this work. The painting illustrates the moment from the Book of Exodus when the Red Sea closes over the Egyptian Pharaoh and his army, who are in pursuit of the fleeing Israelites. This scene is a pivotal episode in the narrative of the Israelites' escape from slavery in Egypt, symbolizing divine intervention and deliverance.

Bridgman's interpretation of this event is marked by his meticulous attention to historical and cultural details, a hallmark of his broader oeuvre. The composition is dynamic, with swirling waters and chaotic figures conveying the tumult and terror of the moment. The artist's use of light and shadow enhances the drama, highlighting the contrast between the dark, engulfing waters and the illuminated figures struggling within them.

The painting reflects Bridgman's academic training and his exposure to the works of the French Orientalist school, particularly his studies under Jean-Léon Gérôme. Bridgman's travels in North Africa and the Middle East also informed his work, providing him with firsthand experience of the landscapes and cultures he depicted. "Pharaoh And His Army Engulfed By The Red Sea" stands as a testament to Bridgman's skill in combining historical narrative with vivid, almost cinematic, visual storytelling.

This work is part of Bridgman's broader contribution to Orientalist art, a genre that, while popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries, has since been critiqued for its exoticizing portrayals of Eastern cultures. Nonetheless, Bridgman's technical prowess and his ability to convey complex scenes with emotional intensity continue to be appreciated by art historians and enthusiasts alike.
