About this work

John Martin's 1829 painting The Repentance of Nineveh shows a dark, storm-filled sky with lightning above a vast, ancient city of terraced architecture and columned temples. In the foreground, robed figures kneel and gaze toward the sky on a stone terrace, while a crowd gathers in the lower left beneath shafts of light breaking through the clouds.
