## Artwork

- Artist: [GREBBER, Pieter de](<https://beta.wga.hu/artists/grebber-pieter-de-r25541e25da385c>)
- Date: 1601-1650

## Commentary

The format, colour, and contrasts of light within this painting suggest that de Grebber was influenced by the intimate and solemn portraits painted by Rembrandt and Lievens in the 1620s. The painter reused an old panel that once depicted the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden. Details of the work underneath remain faintly visible to the naked eye.
