The Titan’s Goblet is an oil painting by the English-born American landscape artist Thomas Cole. Painted in 1833 it is perhaps the most enigmatic of Cole’s allegorical or imaginary landscape scenes. It is a work that defies full explanation according to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The Titan’s Goblet has been called a picture within a picture and a landscape within a landscape: the goblet stands on conventional terrain but its inhabitants live along its rim in a world all their own.
