EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative Early 17th century painting by Flemish artist Joos de Momper the Younger, titled "Lot and his Daughters Fleeing Sodom and Gomorrah," depicts a pivotal moment from the Old Testament book of Genesis. The biblical narrative recounts the sinful cities of Sodom and Gomorrah being destroyed by God due to their wickedness and moral decay. Righteous Lot and his family are warned to leave before the impending doom, and in this work of art, we see Lot leading his two daughters hastily out of the city, their faces etched with fear and urgency. The backdrop of the painting is a chaotic scene of destruction, with flames engulfing the once-thriving metropolis. The use of rich, vibrant colors and dramatic lighting adds to the sense of urgency and impending doom. The painting is a testament to the power of God and the importance of righteousness, as well as a poignant reminder of the consequences of sin. This masterpiece is currently housed in the esteemed Musee de Flandre in Cassel, Belgium, and is a shining example of the Baroque period's artistic mastery and storytelling abilities. The oil on wood painting, created by Momper in 1600, continues to captivate viewers with its intricate details and emotional depth.
