The Palace of Westminster burns across the Thames: a column of orange fire and smoke pours into the night sky and blazes on the water, crowds massed on the bridge and bank. J. M. W. TurnerThe Burning of the Houses of Lords and Commons, 16 October 1834 A blood-red and gold sunset blazes above a dark wilderness lake and forest; a lone bird sits on a broken tree in the foreground. Frederic Edwin ChurchTwilight in the Wilderness A small boat with a white-shrouded figure and a coffin rows towards a rocky island of tombs and tall dark cypresses on still black water. Arnold BöcklinIsland of the Dead Vesuvius erupts at night: a red glow of lava and fire under a smoking sky, black slopes of rock in the foreground and a small moon above. Albert BierstadtMount Vesuvius at Midnight Deep in a dense jungle of huge leaves, bananas and oranges, a tiger leaps on a dark buffalo. Henri RousseauFight Between a Tiger and a Buffalo Two men in dark cloaks stand on a forest path beside a bare uprooted oak, seen from behind, watching a thin crescent moon and evening star. Caspar David FriedrichTwo Men Contemplating the Moon A vast Andean panorama: a jungle waterfall and a tiny wayside cross in front, a plain and a village beyond, and a snowy peak far off in the haze. Frederic Edwin ChurchHeart of the Andes Heavy grey waves break in white foam over dark rocks under a cold, clearing morning sky. Winslow HomerEarly Morning after a Storm at Sea
