Canvas Prints from Heritage Images
The same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up... mid 19th century
The same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened, mid 19th century. Biblical scene, from Moses 7: 11: And after seven days the floodwaters came upon the earth. In the six hundredth year of Noahs life, on the seventeenth day of the second month, all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. And the rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty nights. God sends a flood - the only human survivors on Earth are Noah and his family. The rest of the population try desperately to escape the rising floodwaters, but are destined to drown. Engraving after Winter (The Flood), a painting made c1660 by Nicolas Poussin, in a series depicting the Four Seasons, in the Louvre Museum, Paris

The Great Deluge - A Biblical Scene of Devastation and Faith
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a mid-19th century engraving after Nicolas Poussin's painting, "The Flood". The scene depicts the catastrophic event described in the Old Testament, where God sends a flood to cleanse the Earth. As stated in Moses 7:11, "And after seven days the floodwaters came upon the earth". In this powerful image, we witness Noah and his family aboard their boat, desperately trying to navigate through raging floodwaters. The rain falls relentlessly from storm clouds above as lightning illuminates the darkened sky. The water level rises ominously around them while reptiles seek refuge on rocks that have emerged from beneath. Joseph Clayton Bentley's meticulous attention to detail brings this biblical tale to life. His engraving beautifully conveys both the destructive force of nature and unwavering faith amidst chaos. It serves as a reminder of humanity's capacity for resilience even in times of great adversity. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back centuries ago when belief shaped lives and guided actions. It is a testament to our enduring fascination with religious narratives that continue to inspire contemplation and reflection. This remarkable piece from Heritage Images invites us to ponder themes of survival, divine intervention, and human vulnerability in the face of natural disasters—a timeless message captured within an exquisite work of art.
