EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to the biblical tale of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. The scene depicts a pivotal moment as Eve, portrayed as a female snake, offers Adam an apple from the forbidden tree of knowledge. The serpent's face bears an uncanny resemblance to that of a woman, adding an intriguing twist to this iconic story. Surrounding the tree are various animals - a cat, dog, goat, sheep, and even a parrot - observing this fateful exchange. Their presence suggests that all creatures were witness to humanity's fall from grace. The print is adorned with a Latin caption which translates to "Eve offers the fruit to Adam". This simple phrase encapsulates the essence of temptation and mankind's eternal struggle between good and evil. Created by Jan Saenredam in 1597 through meticulous paper engraving techniques, this artwork measures 221 mm in height and 141 mm in width. Its intricate details bring life to each element within the composition. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of our own vulnerabilities and choices that shape our existence. It serves as both a cautionary tale about yielding into temptation and an exploration of human nature itself.
