Eva en de slang 1890 - 1933

"Eva en de slang" (Eve and the Snake) is a woodcut print created between 1890 and 1933 by Dutch artist Wolbartus Brouwer (1880-1933). This piece depicts the biblical story of the Garden of Eden with a focus on the figure of Eve, who stands nude and reaches for a fruit while a snake coils at her feet. The use of stark black and white lines in this print reinforces the starkness of the narrative, with the artist's signature subtly placed in the bottom right corner. The print, measuring 303mm x 155mm, offers a compelling, expressive, and somewhat simplified interpretation of the biblical story.
