S Deluge Sublime Studio

'The Deluge', the Bible was a prime source of subjects that were both sensational and intellectually elevated. A critic commenting on this painting of the Biblical flood admired ‘that severity of manner which was demanded by the awfulness of the subject’. We can see alot of beauty and calmness in a painting summed in chaos, both sides of the biblical event merged into a beautiful piece.
