EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured etching, titled "Judgment of God on Sin in the Form of the Whore of Babylon," is an intricate and vivid depiction of a biblical allegory from the Book of Revelation. The image, drawn and etched by Thomas Fisher in 1808, showcases the divine retribution of God against sin, represented by the figure of the Whore of Babylon. Surrounded by a sea of flames and chaos, the Whore of Babylon, a seductive and alluring woman, sits atop a seven-headed beast. Above her, a multitude of angels, their wings outstretched, look down upon the scene with solemn expressions. The angels, symbols of divine justice and righteousness, bear witness to the judgment unfolding below. In the depths of the fiery abyss, dragons and demons writhe and torment the damned souls. The Whore of Babylon, with her crown of seven heads and twelve stars, represents the corrupt and sinful city of Babylon, which has been condemned by God. This powerful allegory serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of sin and the ultimate judgment that awaits those who stray from the path of righteousness. Thomas Fisher's masterful handcoloured etching, taken from his "Paintings on the Walls of the Chapel of the Trinity" in Stratford upon Avon, is a testament to the enduring power of biblical imagery and the human capacity for artistic expression. The intricate details and vibrant colours bring the scene to life, transporting the viewer to the otherworldly realm of divine judgment and retribution.
