The Submersion of the Pharoah's Army in the Red Sea 1599

Editor: So, here we have Orazio Farinati's "The Submersion of the Pharoah's Army in the Red Sea," a flurry of lines depicting, well, exactly that. It feels almost violently chaotic, like a storm of ink. What do you see in this piece? Curator: It's more than just chaos, isn't it? It’s a visual tempest mirroring the biblical event. The frantic energy, those waves swallowing men and horses… it’s Farinati wrestling with divine power, the sheer spectacle of faith in action. He makes the viewer feel the terror, doesn’t he? Editor: Definitely! I hadn't considered the terror. Thanks, that puts things in perspective for me. Curator: Anytime! It is a good day when art history helps us see the world more clearly.
