Hieronymus Bosch’s 1514 painting "Noah's Ark on Mount Ararat (obverse)" depicts the biblical story of Noah's Ark landing on Mount Ararat. The ark is shown in the top of the painting, with figures disembarking. The lower portion of the painting shows a large multitude of animals in a chaotic and densely populated environment. Bosch was known for his fantastical and detailed paintings, often incorporating allegorical and moralistic themes. The work is housed in the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen in Rotterdam, Netherlands, where it is a significant example of Bosch's signature style.
