Cities Daughters Flee Gomorrah Pillar Plain Salt Sodom Testament Turned Turns
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image depicts the biblical story of Lot and his family's harrowing escape from the doomed cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. According to the Book of Genesis in the Old Testament, Lot and his wife were living in the cities of the Plain when God sent two angels to warn them of the impending destruction. The righteous family was instructed to leave immediately, but Lot's wife was unable to resist one last look back at the burning cities. As she turned, she was transformed into a pillar of salt, a tragic reminder of the consequences of disobedience and the destructive power of God's wrath. The historical significance of this event is deeply rooted in the religious and cultural traditions of Western civilization. The story of Lot's wife has been retold and reinterpreted throughout the centuries, inspiring art, literature, and music. This powerful image captures the drama and emotion of the story, with Lot and his daughters shown in the foreground, fleeing in fear, while the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah are engulfed in flames in the background. The pillar of salt, a haunting testament to Lot's wife's fate, stands tall and immutable in the distance. This print, from the esteemed Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a captivating glimpse into the rich history and symbolism of this ancient tale. Whether used as a conversation starter, a decorative accent, or a source of inspiration, this image is sure to provoke thought and reflection on the power of obedience, the consequences of disobedience, and the enduring nature of faith and tradition.
