Arken på Ararat 1924

"Arken på Ararat" (The Ark on Ararat) is a 1924 pen and ink drawing by Danish artist Joakim Skovgaard. Depicting a scene from the Book of Genesis, it shows Noah and his family emerging from the Ark onto Mount Ararat with the rainbow symbolizing God's promise to never flood the Earth again. Skovgaard's detailed lines and expressive figures capture the solemnity and awe of the biblical event, making this a significant piece within his religious oeuvre. This drawing is part of the collection of SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
