"Deluge (IX)" is a 1904 painting by Lithuanian symbolist artist Mikalojus Konstantinas Ciurlionis. The work depicts a dark and foreboding landscape with a single eye peering from above, suggesting an apocalyptic event. The contrasting colors and abstract forms characteristic of Ciurlionis's style evoke a sense of mystery and symbolism. This piece is part of Ciurlionis's "The Creation of the World" series, which explores the cyclical nature of creation and destruction.
