About this work
In a mountainous coastal landscape, people and animals are struck by a flood. They seek refuge in higher places. Two men climb a tree. In the foreground, a man and woman with their two children. To the left, a wild boar and a deer. To the right, a dog. Below the image, two pairs of Latin verses. The print is part of an album.
