From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adam and Eve is a 1533 oil on panel painting by Lucas Cranach the Elder, dated on the rock at the bottom by Adam. It is now in the Museum der bildenden Künste in Leipzig,[1] to which it was donated by the Sternburg Foundation.[2]
It is one of a series of about thirty paintings by that artist showing the fall of man. The Museum der bildenden Künste also has a 1512 version by Cranach from the same series.[1]
