Adam and Eve
After Hieronymus Bosch, 1490. Detail from the first panel triptych of The Garden of Earthly Delights. Oil on birch wood panel. 8 inches by 10 inches, unframed.
*Available. Price on request.

Bosch’s most famous triptych is The Garden of Earthly Delights (c. 1495–1505) whose outer panels are intended to bracket the main central panel between the Garden of Eden depicted on the left panel and the Last Judgement depicted on the right panel. It is attributed by Fischer as a transition painting rendered by Bosch from between his middle period and his late period. In the left hand panel God presents Eve to Adam; innovatively God is given a youthful appearance.
