Adam and Eve

Albrecht Dürer

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of two naked people standing in a forest. The person on the left is a man; he has curly hair and holds a plant with leaves and a bird on it in his right hand and a clenched fist in his left hand. The person on the right is a woman; she has long wavy hair and holds a fruit in her right hand and a plant with leaves in her left hand. A small sign on the plant in the man's hand reads "ALBERTVS DYRER NORICVS". A tree trunk is behind the people. A small bird sits on the tree. A serpent is wrapped around the tree trunk on the right. Various animals are at their feet. Two people are standing on a hill in the upper right corner. A light-colored border surrounds the image.
