Default Requesting help in identifying this piece of art.

I found this on youtube while listening to music, and while it may or may not be a very famous painting, I wouldn't know either way because I don't know very much about art.

I would really like to find out the name of it, so any help would be appreciated.

It's one of a five-painting series entitled "The Course of Empire", by the American painter Thomas Cole (1801-1848). This painting is called "Destruction".
