EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Luca Giordano's masterpiece, "Expulsion from Paradise" created in the second half of the 17th century. The painting is housed in the esteemed collection of the State Open-air Museum Palace Gatchina, located in St Petersburg. Giordano's artwork depicts a profound biblical scene from the Book of Genesis, where Adam and Eve are banished from the Garden of Eden as punishment for their sin. The composition showcases a male and female figure representing Adam and Eve respectively, standing at the center with sorrowful expressions on their faces. Surrounded by lush greenery and vibrant flora, an angel with majestic wings points towards the exit gate while a variety of animals like birds, rabbits, and ducks observe this solemn moment. Through his masterful use of color and detail, Giordano skillfully conveys both human emotion and divine intervention. The painting explores themes such as religious symbolism, knowledge versus ignorance, temptation, sinfulness, and redemption. It exemplifies Giordano's exceptional talent within the Baroque era. This print serves as a reminder of humanity's fallibility but also offers hope for spiritual growth through repentance. It invites viewers to reflect upon our own actions while appreciating one artist's interpretation of this timeless biblical narrative.
