Description
This is a reproduction of The Great Day of His Wrath of about 1852 by John Martin. He was about sixty-four years old when he created this huge masterpiece. The scene is a landscape depicting the destruction of Babylon and the material world by the Wrath of the Lord as described in the Biblical book of The Revelation. The Artist was born in Northumberland and became a student of Bonifacio Musso. They moved to London when Martin was seventeen and he married two years later. He supported himself giving drawing lessons and selling watercolors and, on his second attempt, had an oil on canvas hung in the Royal Academy when he twenty-two. Five years later he won public acclaim for his Joshua and two years later a large sale enabled him to buy a home and rid himself of debt. He went on to win wider public acclaim and to become a favorite of aristocrats and royalty. He died a wealthy man in 1874. This painting is an oil on canvas and measures 78 by 119 inches. It is in the Tate Gallery in London.
