He worked on these frescoes from 1546 until his death in 1557. This now destroyed programme, including a Resurrection and Last Judgment but mainly a cycle of scenes from the Genesis, constituted Pontormo's final artistic testament. Drawings, such as that shown by the picture, provide the basis for its reconstruction. ## Related artworks - [Adam and Eve at Work]() - [Alessandro de' Medici in Profile]() - [Alessandro de' Medici]() - [Alessandro de' Medici]() - [Anatomical study]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation]() - [Birth Tray \(back\)]() - [Birth Tray \(front\)]() - [Christ before Pilate]() - [Christ the Judge with the Creation of Eve]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
