Fall of Man (Adam and Eve)
Albrecht Dürer, Fall of Man (Adam and Eve), 1504, High Northern Renaissance.
1) Inspired by the Vitruvian theory of human proportions, which was based on arithmetic ratios (esp. regarding how to produce an image of the body w/ divine rational order of numbers)
2) Example of Durer's high quality prints that people of average means could buy and put on display in their homes
3) Portrays the ambiguous moment before the actual fall of man, indicated by how docile the animals are before turning on each other (conception of sin)
