Destruction of Tyre | John Martin | 1840

"The Destruction of Tyre" by John Martin, circa 1840, depicts the catastrophic fall of the ancient city of Tyre. The painting captures a dramatic scene of chaos and destruction, with towering flames engulfing the city, dark smoke billowing into the sky, and crumbling buildings. The tumultuous sea, turbulent skies, and fleeing figures add to the apocalyptic atmosphere. Martin's use of stark contrasts between light and dark, along with meticulous details, emphasizes the overwhelming scale of the disaster and the power of divine retribution.
