This anonymous 17th-century Dutch print, "Adam en Eva aan het werk buiten het Aards Paradijs," depicts Adam and Eve working the land after being expelled from the Garden of Eden. The scene, characteristic of Baroque art, utilizes dramatic lighting and foreshortening to create a sense of depth and realism. Adam is shown digging with a shovel, while Eve spins wool in the background, symbolizing their new roles as laborers. The print is housed in the Rijksmuseum and captures a moment from the biblical story, highlighting the consequences of disobedience.
