"Elijah Fed by the Ravens" is a significant painting by the American artist Washington Allston, created in 1816. This work of art depicts the biblical story of the prophet Elijah, as narrated in the Book of 1 Kings, during a time when he is sent into the wilderness and provided sustenance by ravens sent by God. The painting is a fine example of Allston's romantic style and his interest in biblical themes, showcasing his ability to convey dramatic intensity and spiritual depth.

In the painting, Allston captures the moment when Elijah, seated on a rocky landscape, receives bread and meat from the ravens. The use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and dark, serves to highlight the figure of Elijah and the ravens, creating a focal point that draws the viewer's attention to the miraculous event. The landscape, rendered with atmospheric perspective, adds to the sense of isolation and divine intervention.

Washington Allston (1779–1843), often referred to as the "American Titian," was a pioneer of the American Romantic movement in art and was celebrated for his ambitious subject matter and his experimental use of light and color. "Elijah Fed by the Ravens" is considered one of his masterpieces and reflects his engagement with European artistic traditions, his religious convictions, and his exploration of nature's sublime qualities.

The painting is held in high regard not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and historical significance. It represents a period in American art history when artists were beginning to express a distinct American voice while still drawing on European influences. Today, "Elijah Fed by the Ravens" is appreciated both for its aesthetic qualities and as a reflection of the spiritual and artistic concerns of the early 19th century.
