Introduction References & Edit History

Lot and his family flee the burning city of Sodom in a Renaissance-style illustration after Raphael; Lot's wife looks back as flames engulf the city behind them. Lot and his two daughters walk away from burning Sodom in the background, while Lot's wife, turned into a pillar of salt, stands behind them. Painting by Albrecht Durer. Hand-colored woodcut from the Nuremberg Chronicle shows Lot and his family led by an angel away from burning Sodom, with Lot's wife depicted as a pillar of salt. The Flight of Lot and His Family from Sodom, painted by Jacob Jordaens, shows an angel guiding Lot and his family as Lot's wife looks back, with dramatic expressions and rich colors.
