[1][2] Adam and Eve have been depicted in Greek Italian art since the dawn of the new Christian religion.
The Fall of Man is not an identical replica of an engraving by Delaune but it was inspired by his work.
The work later inspired a similar painting by Greek painter Konstantinos Kontarinis.
The Fall of Man is part of the Collection of Dimitris Kontominas in Athens, Greece.
The painting was formerly part of the collection of Count Cesare Cicogna Mozzoni and Countess Annamaria Volpi di Misurata in Venice.
Adam and Eve, the serpent, and the tree were imported by Poulakis from the sketch-like printed engraving.
The artist creatively animated the wood panel with a lavish landscape filled with birds and shrubbery.
The Fall of Man resonates the idea that the visual world must be observed before it could be analyzed and understood.
