The Expulsion from the Garden of Eden, a powerful woodcut illustration from Cranmers Bible, 1540, captures the pivotal moment when Adam and Eve are banished from paradise. This profound image, created by an anonymous English artist in the 15th century, showcases their anguish as they are driven out by an angelic figure. The woodcut technique used in this print adds depth and texture to the scene, emphasizing the raw emotions experienced by Adam and Eve. The intricate details of their figures highlight their vulnerability and despair as they face the consequences of their disobedience. This illustration is part of the second edition of the Great Bible, also known as Cranmers Bible due to its preface written by Thomas Cranmer. It serves as a visual representation of one of humanity's most enduring stories – that of our expulsion from paradise.
