The Temptation on the Mountain


Type: Gallery Image | Vetted



Satan and Jesus are silhouetted on the right at the edge of a cliff. A serpent hangs from a cliff on the left. Cities and rivers are revealed far below them, from the bottom of the print to about 2/3 up it. The land transitions into the ocean, which fades out to a less-defined horizon. The sun is centered in the top third of the image, illuminating the landscape; it appears to be either sunrise or sunset. Everything is rounded, as though it had been drawn by looking in a Claude mirror.3Satan and Jesus are silhouetted on the right at the edge of a cliff. A serpent hangs from a cliff on the left.
