"De zondeval" (The Fall of Man) is a painting by the Dutch artist Maarten van Heemskerck, created in the 16th century. Van Heemskerck, a prominent figure of the Northern Renaissance, is known for his detailed and expressive works that often incorporate religious and mythological themes.

This painting depicts the biblical story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, focusing on the moment of temptation and the subsequent fall from grace. The composition is rich in symbolism, with the central figures of Adam and Eve surrounded by lush foliage and various animals, illustrating the paradise they inhabit. The serpent, often depicted as a cunning creature, is shown coiled around the Tree of Knowledge, offering the forbidden fruit to Eve.

Van Heemskerck's style is characterized by his use of vibrant colors and dynamic compositions, which are evident in "De zondeval." The figures are rendered with a keen attention to anatomical detail, reflecting the influence of Italian Renaissance artists whom Van Heemskerck studied during his time in Italy. The painting also demonstrates his skill in creating depth and perspective, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene.

The work is notable for its exploration of human emotion and moral complexity, capturing the tension and curiosity in Eve's expression and the hesitant complicity of Adam. This portrayal invites viewers to reflect on themes of temptation, free will, and the consequences of human actions.

"De zondeval" is part of Van Heemskerck's broader oeuvre, which includes altarpieces, portraits, and engravings. His works are held in various collections around the world, and this particular painting contributes to the understanding of religious narratives in art during the Renaissance period. Through his art, Van Heemskerck offers a window into the cultural and theological concerns of his time, making "De zondeval" a significant piece for both its artistic merit and historical context.
