Jean Mignon's "Temptation in the Garden" is a 16th-century print depicting the biblical story of Adam and Eve's temptation in the Garden of Eden. The detailed engraving showcases Adam and Eve, a serpent coiled around a tree, and various animals within a richly decorated frame, signifying the beauty and abundance of Eden. This intricate composition, characteristic of Mannerism, emphasizes the interplay between humans and nature, and the consequences of temptation.
