EDITORS COMMENTS
Anon's The Flood, 1450-1499, is a stunning 15th century oil on panel painting that depicts the biblical scene of the Great Flood as described in the Book of Genesis. The artwork, which originated from the Low Countries in Europe, likely from the Netherlands, showcases a chaotic and turbulent landscape filled with animals and people scrambling to find safety. In the center of the painting, we see Noah's Ark, a large wooden boat filled with two by two pairs of animals, as well as Noah and his family. The figures are shown in various stages of boarding the ark, some helping to load the animals while others are in a state of despair, looking up at the heavy rain and raging waters. The sky above is filled with dark clouds, and the waters below are rough and tumultuous, with birds flying overhead, adding to the sense of urgency and chaos. The colors used in the painting are rich and vibrant, with deep blues and greens dominating the scene. The Flood is an important work of art in the history of Christian and Old Testament depictions, and is a testament to the artistic talent and cultural heritage of the 15th century. This painting can currently be found on exhibit at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
