The World Before the Flood is an oil-on-canvas painting by the English artist William Etty, first exhibited in 1828 and currently in the Southampton City Art Gallery. It depicts a scene from John Milton's Paradise Lost in which, among a series of visions of the future shown to Adam, he sees the world immediately before the Great Flood. The painting illustrates the stages of courtship as described by Milton; a group of men select wives from a group of dancing women, drag their chosen woman from the group, and settle down to married life. Behind the courting group, an oncoming storm looms, foreshadowing the destruction which the dancers and lovers are about to bring upon themselves.

  • The World Before the Flood, (en español:El mundo antes de la inundación) es un óleo sobre lienzo del artista inglés William Etty, exhibido por primera vez en 1828 y actualmente en la Galería de Arte de la ciudad de Southampton. Representa una escena de El paraíso perdido de John Milton en la que, entre una serie de visiones del futuro mostradas a Adán, ve el mundo inmediatamente antes de la gran inundación. La pintura ilustra las etapas de cortejo según lo descrito por Milton; Un grupo de hombres seleccionó esposas de un grupo de mujeres que bailaban, arrastró a su mujer elegida del grupo y se estableció en la vida matrimonial. Detrás del grupo de cortejo, se avecinó una tormenta que se aproximaba, presagiando la destrucción que los bailarines y los amantes están a punto de traer sobre sí mismos. Cuando se exhibió por primera vez en la exposición estival de la Royal Academy de 1828, la pintura atrajo a grandes multitudes y una opinión crítica fuertemente dividida. Fue muy elogiada por muchos críticos, quienes lo contaron entre las mejores obras de arte del país. Otros revisores la condenaron como cruda, insípida, ofensiva y mal ejecutada. La pintura fue comprada en la exposición de verano por el marqués de Stafford. Se vendió en 1908, mucho después de que Etty se pasara de moda, por una pérdida sustancial, y se vendió nuevamente en 1937 por una pérdida sustancial adicional a la Galería de Arte de la Ciudad de Southampton donde permanece. Otro trabajo de Etty, vendido como A Bacchanalian Scene (una escena bacanal) en 1830 y luego renombrado como Landscape with Figures, se identificó en 1953 como un boceto al óleo para Landscape with Figures y comprado por la Galería de Arte de York. Las dos pinturas se exhibieron juntas como parte de una importante retrospectiva del trabajo de Etty en 2011–2012. (es)

Behind the courting group, an oncoming storm looms, foreshadowing the destruction which the dancers and lovers are about to bring upon themselves. When first exhibited at the 1828 Royal Academy Summer Exhibition the painting attracted large crowds, and strongly divided critical opinion. It was greatly praised by many critics, who counted it among the finest works of art in the country. Other reviewers condemned it as crude, tasteless, offensive and poorly executed. The painting was bought at the Summer Exhibition by the Marquess of Stafford. It was sold in 1908, long after Etty had fallen out of fashion, for a substantial loss, and sold again in 1937 for a further substantial loss to the Southampton City Art Gallery, where it remains. Another work by Etty, sold as A Bacchanalian Scene in 1830 and later renamed Landscape with Figures, was identified in 1953 as a preliminary oil sketch for The World Before the Flood and purchased by the York Art Gallery. The two paintings were exhibited together as part of a major retrospective of Etty's work in 2011–2012. (en)

  • They on the Plain Long had not walkt, when from the Tents behold A Beavie of fair Women, richly gay In Gems and wanton dress; to the Harp they sung Soft amorous Ditties, and in dance came on: The Men though grave, ey'd them, and let thir eyes Rove without rein, till in the amorous Net Fast caught, they lik'd, and each his liking chose; And now of love they treat till th'Eevning Star Loves Harbinger appeerd; then all in heat They light the Nuptial Torch, and bid invoke Hymen, then first to marriage Rites invok't; With Feast and Musick all the Tents resound. Such happy interview and fair event Of love and youth not lost, Songs, Garlands, Flours, And charming Symphonies attach'd the heart Of Adam, soon enclin'd to admit delight, The bent of Nature; which he thus express'd. (en)
  • Were Milton now alive, possessed of sight, And his embodied beauties here to view, This scene he would behold with proud delight, And own that Etty is a poet too. But if Poussin could from the grave arise, His heart at once would feel an envious thorn, He would behold the work with jealous eyes, And writhing, wish that Etty ne'er was born. Artist! 'tis thine to reach the heroic sphere, Or sport where Graces and the Loves preside; Lofty or beautiful thy forms appear, By Genius warm'd, with nature still thy guide. (en)
