Die Sintflut

Französische Grafik 1781–1788, nach 1783

The image depicts three individuals: a man, a woman, and a child. The man is standing on a rock in the sea, covering his eyes with his right arm. He has dark, tousled hair. The woman is seated on the rock, draped in a white cloth, holding the child close to her chest. The child, also wrapped in a cloth, is young. Waves lap against the rock. In the background, one person is emerging from the water. The scene includes a vast sea under a cloudy sky, with a small boat on the horizon.
