EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching by the renowned 16th century Italian artist, Antonio Tempesta, depicts the dramatic scene of The Expulsion from the Garden of Eden, as described in the Book of Genesis. The Old Testament narrative recounts how Adam and Eve, the first humans, were driven out of the Garden for disobeying God's command not to eat from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Tempesta masterfully captures the essence of this biblical story, with Adam and Eve standing in shock and disbelief as they are expelled from the idyllic paradise they once called home. The archangel Jophiel, with a stern expression, leads the couple out, while the archangel Michael, with a look of sorrow, guards the entrance to the Garden. The serpent, who had deceived Eve into eating the forbidden fruit, is depicted as a reptile slithering away in the background. The Expulsion is a powerful depiction of the Fall of Man and the consequences of original sin. The image is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Baroque era and the enduring influence of Christian art and literature on European culture. This etching, which is part of the permanent collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, religion, or the human condition.
