"Adam met slang en appel en liggende stier" (Adam with Snake, Apple and Lying Bull), created in 1524 by German artist Sebald Beham, is an engraving that depicts Adam in the Garden of Eden. Adam is standing with a snake coiled around his legs and an apple in his hand. He appears contemplative, reflecting on the consequences of his actions. This small, intricate print, measuring just 79 mm by 52 mm, demonstrates Beham's mastery of line and detail, typical of the Northern Renaissance style. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
