ex0skeletay:The Great Red Dragon paintings are a series of watercolor paintings by the English poet and painter William Blake, painted between 1805 and 1810. It was during this period that Blake was commissioned to create over a hundred paintings intended to illustrate books of the Bible. These paintings depict ‘The Great Red Dragon’ in various scenes from the Book of Revelation. “And behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth.”-The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed in Sun-The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed with the Sun-The Great Red Dragon and the Beast from the Sea-The Number of the Beast is 666 -- source link
