CRANACH, Lucas the Elder
(b. 1472, Kronach, d. 1553, Weimar)

Adam and Eve

c. 1510
Oil and tempera on limewood, 58 x 44 cm
Muzeum Narodowe, Warsaw

This painting, and contemporary versions by Cranach reveal unmistakably the influence of Dürer and the models he provided with his engraving of 1504 and the two life-size panels from 1507.
