Landslides in Art Part 5

I apologise for the lack of posts of late. I am currently in Pakistan to visit the Attabad landslide, courtesy of FOCUS Pakistan. I will post on that soon, and of course there has been a great deal happening in the landslide world whilst I have been in the field.

Anyway, this is the latest in my series on landslides in art. The previous parts can be found here:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4 (coastal erosion)

This edition of courtesy of the ever-helpful Sekhar Kuriakose of ITC in the Netherlands.

The artist in E.J Roychan, an artist from Kerala in India, now living in Saudi Arabia. The piece is called "Urul Pottal", which means debris flow, in Malayalam. Sekhar describes the genesis of the piece as follows:

"He is a very good friend of mine. He got inspired by my work on landslides and contemplated and created this piece for me."

Landslides in Art Part 3

This is the latest in my occasional series on the depiction of landslides in art. The previous parts of this series are here:
Part 1
Part 2

Today I turn to a classic painting from the 19th Century, painted by Lord Frederic Leighton, entitled "On the Coast, Isle of Wight":


This oil sketch, which hangs in the National Gallery in London, shows a stretch of the Isle of Wight coastline in southern England. The view is from Ventnor looking towards the west towards Saint Lawrence. The coast here is a famous area of landslides known as The Undercliff - the landslide morphology is clearly visible in the painting.
