THE LAST JUDGEMENT

 Dom Martin

(Oil on Canvas, 1976)

Bom Jesus Basilica Art Gallery, Old Goa, India

Three decades before evidences of global warming and ozone depletion became issues of global concern, Dom Martin envisioned it in his 1976 version of The Last Judgement (Bom Jesus Basilica Art Gallery, Goa, India). 

Contrary to the concept of the Christian ethical-judicial trial, Dom Martin’s version depicts humanity’s end as a direct and consequential result of its destruction of nature.
