Sgrios – from The Course of Empire c1836 by British-American Painter Thomas Cole (1801 – 1848); specializing in historical and landscape paintings that portrayed the American wilderness and is regarded as the founder of the Hudson River School Movement.
This powerful painting depicts a once glorious and powerful empire in its last stages; as war rages on the sea and on the land amongst the grand statues, sculptures and columns of a great city state; with soldiers show no mercy to anyone, killing even women, children, the old and the young; and in the background on the right we can see a once great city burning in flames as soldiers set it ablaze.
