Lucas Cranach the Elder's "Adam and Eve" (1530) portrays the biblical figures in the Garden of Eden. The painting, now housed in the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp, captures the moment of temptation and the fall of humanity. Cranach's signature style, characterized by elongated figures and delicate details, is evident in the realistic depiction of Adam and Eve's bodies and the lush foliage surrounding them. The vibrant, contrasting colors and the dark backdrop create a dramatic and evocative scene, captivating viewers with the story of temptation and the loss of innocence.
