The Fall of Man 1919

Lovis Corinth's 1919 woodcut, *The Fall of Man,* depicts Adam and Eve in a stylized and expressive manner. The figures are elongated and contorted, with bold, expressive lines and a rich color palette, characteristic of the artist's later Expressionist style. Corinth's treatment of the biblical subject matter is unique, focusing on the emotional and psychological impact of the event rather than a traditional, literal representation. This piece showcases Corinth's distinctive use of woodcut as a medium, reflecting his experimentation with printmaking and his interest in exploring the human condition.
