@RakanINazer@ziyad_hussain1 Mostly it is an American landscape, a scene from “Thanatosis” poem and does not has a biblical meaning.
Durand is an American and in love with America landscapes and he always advised the American artists to paint it. He was a master in painting landscapes.
@RakanINazer@ziyad_hussain1 In addition to Ziyad’s words,a nice expression for the painting“The presence of a funeral, of a farmer's daily work, and of the ruins of man in ancient nature reflects the poem's emphasis on the permanence of the earth and the creation and reversion of man from and to its soils.”
One of the most famous love stories in history, you can see the sorrow and the regret in cleopatra’s eyes as she was the cause of his death.
“The Death of Mark Antony with Cleopatra”1778
