Painting Description
"Expulsion from Paradise" is a notable woodcut by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created in 1510 as part of his larger series of woodcuts known as "The Small Passion." This series comprises 37 detailed woodcuts depicting various scenes from the Passion of Christ, from the Last Supper to the Resurrection and Ascension. The "Expulsion from Paradise" stands out as an image that precedes the main narrative, illustrating the biblical event from the Book of Genesis where Adam and Eve are cast out of the Garden of Eden by God as a consequence of their disobedience.
In this work, Dürer showcases his mastery of the woodcut medium, employing fine lines and intricate details to convey the emotional intensity of the scene. The figures of Adam and Eve are depicted in the immediate aftermath of their transgression, with the angel expelling them from the paradisiacal garden. The composition reflects Dürer's knowledge of human anatomy and his skill in rendering the human form, which was informed by his study of Italian Renaissance art and his own pioneering work in the field of art theory.
The "Expulsion from Paradise" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its place within the context of the Reformation, which was gaining momentum around the time of the woodcut's creation. Dürer's work reflects the religious and cultural shifts of the period, as well as the artist's personal engagement with theological themes.
As a part of "The Small Passion," the "Expulsion from Paradise" contributes to the narrative arc of the series, setting the stage for the redemption story that unfolds through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The woodcut is held in high esteem for its technical excellence and its evocative portrayal of a pivotal moment in Judeo-Christian narrative, marking it as a significant work in the oeuvre of one of the most important artists of the Northern Renaissance.
