EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Creation of Eve" woodcut, a masterpiece from the 15th century German School. Measuring at 39.2x26.7 cm, this hand-coloured artwork is part of a private collection and holds immense historical and religious significance. The image depicts the biblical scene where Eve is formed by God from Adam's rib while they both lie outdoors in a circular shape. The attention to detail and vibrant hand tinting bring life to this ancient portrayal of creation. Attributed to the Master of the Cologne Bibles, this woodcut was published in Nuremberg by Anton Koberger in 1483. Its intricate design and composition reflect the artistic style prevalent during that era. The print captures a small group of people, including Adam, Eve, and God as they participate in this pivotal moment in human history. The patterned background adds depth to the overall composition while emphasizing themes of procreation and origin. As an old master's work rooted deeply in Christian tradition, this woodcut serves as a visual representation of faith and spirituality. It symbolizes beginnings, divine intervention, and humanity's connection with its creator. With its rich colors and meticulous craftsmanship preserved through time, this print allows us to appreciate the beauty and significance of religious art from centuries ago.
