Daniel Hopfer's "Eve" is a 16th-century engraving that depicts the biblical figure of Eve in the Garden of Eden. The print features a detailed depiction of Eve's nudity, with her body gracefully positioned beneath a lush tree. The artist's use of intricate lines and shading creates a sense of realism and depth, highlighting Eve's physical beauty and vulnerability. The background features a swirling, celestial scene, referencing the story of Eve's creation and the fall of man. The print's small size and intimate subject matter make it an excellent example of the artistic and religious themes popular during the Renaissance era.
