The Garden of Earthly Delights – Left Panel – Oil Painting Reproduction

Oil Painting Reproduction of The Garden of Earthly Delights – Left Panel by Outpost-Art.org

The left panel (sometimes known as the Joining of Adam and Eve) depicts a scene from the paradise of the Garden of Eden commonly interpreted as the moment when God presents Eve to Adam. The painting shows Adam waking from a deep sleep to find God holding Eve by her wrist and giving the sign of his blessing to their union. God is younger-looking than on the outer panels, blue-eyed and with golden curls. His youthful appearance may be a device by the artist to illustrate the concept of Christ as the incarnation of the Word of God. God’s right hand is raised in blessing, while he holds Eve’s wrist with his left.
