"Victoria Falls of the Zambezi River" is a notable painting by the English artist and explorer Thomas Baines, created during his explorations of Southern Africa in the mid-19th century. Thomas Baines (1820–1875) was renowned for his detailed and vivid landscapes, as well as his ethnographic depictions of African peoples and cultures. His work as both an artist and explorer significantly contributed to the European understanding of Southern African geography and societies during the Victorian era.

The painting captures the majestic and awe-inspiring view of Victoria Falls, one of the largest and most famous waterfalls in the world, located on the Zambezi River at the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. Baines's depiction of Victoria Falls is celebrated for its attention to detail, capturing the immense scale and power of the falls, as well as the unique beauty of its surrounding landscape. His work provides a valuable historical record of the area during the 19th century, offering insights into the natural environment prior to significant human alteration.

Created during Baines's expedition to the Zambezi with the British explorer David Livingstone in the 1850s, this painting is part of a larger body of work that documents the landscapes, peoples, and wildlife encountered during their travels. Baines's artistic contributions were instrumental in bringing the wonders of Southern Africa to the attention of the British public and the wider world. His paintings, including "Victoria Falls of the Zambezi River," not only served as scientific documentation but also played a role in the romanticization of African exploration during the period.

Today, Thomas Baines's work is held in high regard for its historical value and artistic merit. "Victoria Falls of the Zambezi River" is considered a masterpiece of exploration art, reflecting the intersection of European exploration, artistic endeavor, and the beginning of a global appreciation for the natural wonders of Africa.
