The Flood 2018

"The Flood" (2018) by Bo Bartlett depicts a family of four rowing away from a flooded town. The steeple of a church is visible in the distance, rising above the waterline. The painting's realistic style and somber tone suggest a sense of displacement and uncertainty, highlighting the impact of natural disasters on communities. This evocative work explores themes of resilience and the enduring power of family in the face of adversity.
