The Edge of Doom Samuel Colman (British, 1780-1845). , 1836-1838. Oil on canvas, 54 x 78 1/2 in. (137.2 x 199.4 cm). In The Edge of Doom, Samuel Colman imagines the destruction of (Western) civilization. Known for spectacular, apocalyptic imagery, here Colman portrays bolts of lightning striking erratically, blasting classical and Gothic buildings, carriages, paintings, and even the figure of Time (tumbling with an hourglass and scythe) into a central glowing void. All that survives is the memorial sculpture of William Shakespeare, then and now on view in Londons Westminster Abbey. European Art 1836-1838
