Description:

The silhouette of Noah's Ark can be seen in the background, floating on waters that threaten to submerge the entire landscape, as clusters of people, mingling with animals, try to find refuge on rocks, mounds, and in trees that break under the strain.

The caption reads in the original French: Le déluge (Gén., VII, 1-6).
