EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from the Thomas Bankes Bible, a beautifully illustrated edition of the Old Testament published in 1787. The scene depicted here is the Expulsion of Adam and Eve from Paradise, as described in the Book of Genesis (3:24). The serene idyll of the Garden of Eden, where Adam and Eve once lived in harmony with nature and God, has been shattered by their disobedience. The angel, with a stern expression and outstretched hand, drives them from the garden, as they cover their nakedness in shame. The couple's once contented expressions have been replaced with sorrow and regret. The lush vegetation and vibrant colors of the garden contrast sharply with the muted tones and somber mood of the expelled couple. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the consequences of disobedience and the fall from grace. The Thomas Bankes Bible is a testament to the enduring allure of biblical stories and their ability to resonate with generations, offering timeless lessons and moral guidance.
