After my painting of death as the fourth horseman I was asked to do all of the horsemen. So here's the second one, War.
Inspired by war in 'Darksiders'.
"When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come and see!" Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword."
Conquest? Hmm.. Famine, Pestilence, War, and Death.. I think I am thinking about the new found distinction. I read that The pale horse is/was conquest and then became the green/rotten horse pestilence. But good work! I love the horsemen!
According to wikipedia and bibles I've come across it's Conquest on a white horse, War on a red horse, Famine on a black horse and Death on a pale/green horse. but in pop culture its more common with Pestilence.
