"Sadak in Search of the Waters of Oblivion" is an oil painting by the English Romantic painter John Martin, completed in 1812. The work is a dramatic and atmospheric representation of a scene from James Ridley's Orientalist fantasy tale "Tales of the Genii" (1764). The painting depicts the protagonist, Sadak, in a perilous moment of his quest to find the Waters of Oblivion, which he seeks in a desperate attempt to free his wife from the clutches of an evil sultan.

Martin's painting is characterized by its grand scale, measuring approximately 766 by 1016 millimeters, and is renowned for its sublime portrayal of the landscape and the human figure's insignificance within it. The artist's use of light and shadow, combined with the vast and foreboding terrain, creates a sense of overwhelming awe and terror, which is a hallmark of the Romantic movement's fascination with the sublime.

The composition is dominated by the figure of Sadak, who is seen struggling against the forces of nature as he scales a steep and treacherous cliff face. The vastness of the landscape and the tumultuous waters below emphasize the enormity of his task and the smallness of the individual against the elements. Martin's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to convey texture and atmosphere contribute to the painting's powerful visual impact.

"Sadak in Search of the Waters of Oblivion" is considered one of John Martin's early masterpieces and is a prime example of his ability to fuse narrative, emotion, and landscape in a way that resonates with the viewer. The painting is a testament to the enduring appeal of Romanticism and its exploration of human emotion, nature's power, and the quest for the transcendent. It remains an important work in the oeuvre of John Martin and in the history of British art, reflecting the era's cultural and artistic preoccupations. The painting is held in the collection of the Saint Louis Art Museum in Missouri, United States.
