ArtistSurreal art, dark fantasy. An ageless Benjamin Franklin experimenting with electricity and gunpowder in an old tower blown by a dark summer Thunderstorm in Philadelphia. Inside the tower, in the center of the frame, there is an old table, covered with piles of gunpowder, test tubes, scales, papers, firecrackers, and bottle rockets. an electrical emitter hangs above it. Dr. Franklin is wearing an old, washed-out white coat with holes and stains from chemicals. The doctor stands on the platform and prepares to pull the switch. The wires from the switch lead to the emitter, which is already humming with voltage and filled with electricity from the lightning that just struck the tower. The scene is full of inner drama and hidden frantic energy. Magnificent composition, powerful contrasts of light and shadow, crisp quality, a masterpiece.
An individual resembling Benjamin Franklin stands in a ruined, brick-walled room conducting an experiment with glittering sparks flying from their hand.
