God schept Adam en Eva 1675

"God schept Adam en Eva" is a 1675 etching by Cesare Fantetti, depicting the biblical scene of God creating Adam and Eve. The etching depicts a scene from Genesis, with God standing in the foreground, reaching out to Adam and Eve who stand in the middle ground. The composition is balanced, with the figures arranged in a pyramid shape, typical of Baroque art. Fantetti's work, completed the year of his death, captures the divine power of God, as well as the vulnerability of Adam and Eve in this moment of creation.
