Two men
techniek: Pen and Ink on Paper, 13.7 x 10.3 cm
Bosch used a pen to put the start of human suffering on paper. The devil has disguised himself as a human and offers the forbidden fruit to Eve. She seems to make a reticent gesture, while already covering her private parts. The devil has tried to look human, but has failed ever so slightly. His tail hangs down in such a strange way that he has to hold onto the apple tree for support. Nevertheless, he will succeed in giving Eve the apple. |  |
