创造世界与逐出乐园

Giovanni di Paolo (Giovanni di Paolo di Grazia) Italian

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 956

这幅画描绘了创世故事中的两个情节。它与同在大都会博物馆的木板画《乐园》一起，组成了锡耶纳圣多明尼哥大教堂中圭尔菲礼拜堂祭坛画台座的一部份。天父上帝被撒拉弗（许多天使）托起，他的手指向刚刚被造的诸天和大地：四大元素和十二宫环绕着山川河流。亚当和夏娃被逐出乐园，那里生长着茂盛的果树、百合花、玫瑰和康乃馨。陪伴在旁的天使有不同寻常的裸体人形，可能象征他非常同情人类失去天恩后堕落的处境。
