ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The Garden of Eden (from Hebrew Gan Eden) is described by the Book of Genesis as being the place where the first man and woman, Adam and Eve, were created by God and lived until they fell and were expelled. In the Qur'an it is simply called the Garden. The origin of the term "Eden," which in Hebrew means "delight," may be related to the Akkadian edinu, which derives from the Sumerian E.DIN. The latter words mean "plain" or "steppe." Eden is described as a paradise where the first man and woman lived naked and not ashamed among animals and a great variety of fruit-bearing trees. They could freely eat the fruit of all the trees except one that God prohibited them from eating, called the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. The Devil (in the Bible symbolized by a serpent) tempted them to eat of that forbidden fruit, and as a result humanity was expelled from the Garden of Eden, never to return.
