Elijah in the Desert



This is a romantic painting called Elijah in the Desert by Washington Allston. In this painting, you the prophet Elijah going through a melancholy desert. The painting emphasizes on the desert itself, showing the dangerous nature of it with the broken tree and the gloomy clouds. It shows what Elijah had to go through to get past the desert, and that it was not going to be easy. This painting is very well done.
