The Deluge

Charles Guilloux

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Deluge by Charles Guilloux shows a landscape with a winding road. The road has two tracks and runs from the bottom right corner and curves to the left. It sits on green grass and is bordered by still water on the left. The road cuts through a group of silhouetted trees which are reflected in the water. The trees are on a raised area of land with green grass. The background shows purple mountains against a beige grainy sky. The artist's name is written near the bottom right corner. The image is grainy with shades of beige, green, purple and dark blue.
