EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Luca Giordano's masterpiece, "Expulsion from Paradise" in all its glory. Painted with meticulous detail and skillful brushstrokes, this oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 267x307 cm. The State Open-air Museum Palace Gatchina in St. Petersburg is fortunate to house this Italian Baroque gem. The scene depicted is none other than the biblical tale of Adam and Eve's expulsion from the Garden of Eden. With their heads bowed low in disgrace, they stand before a majestic angel who points them towards a life outside paradise. Clad in simple loincloths, their vulnerability is palpable as they face the consequences of their sin. Giordano expertly plays with chiaroscuro, creating dramatic contrasts between light and shadow that heighten the emotional intensity of the moment. The viewer can almost feel the weight of regret and temptation that hangs heavy in the air. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of our own human frailty and capacity for both good and evil. It serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst banishment and despair, there is always hope for redemption.
