Art Alone
© Center for Jewish Art, Photographer: Radovan, Zev, 1992

Adam and Eve (Gen. 3: 1-7) are depicted on the upper right panel.

They are standing on either side of a fan-shaped tree wearing big leaves that cover their loins.

Eve, with long hair, is on the right and is presenting Adam with a flower held in her left hand. The snake is at her left, wound around the trunk of a tall tree, facing her.

Adam, bearded and with long hair, is seated on the ground to the left of the tree with his right hand extended towards Eve.

Two small trees are seen in the background.

A Hebrew inscription in square filled letters appears above the scene, reads:"אדם וחוה"  "Adam and Eve".
