Throwback Thursday - Bible Woodcut "Deluge"

Today, on Throwback Thursday, I share a woodcut from the John Robert McQueen Family Bible published in 1850. 

This is titled "Deluge." 

The picture is a bit sobering to say the least. 


"In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day all the fountains of the great deep burst open, and the floodgates of the sky were opened." Genesis 7:11
