Expulsion from Paradise 1425-28 Istrian stone, 99 x 92 cm \(with frame\) San Petronio, Bologna The Expulsion relief on the main portal derives from Quercia's own relief on the Fonte Gaia, but the figures have become more muscular and tense, as if to compensate for the greater distance between this work and an hypothetical viewer looking at the whole door. ## Related artworks - [Acca Larentia]() - [Acca Larentia]() - [Acca Larentia]() - [Angel of the Annunciation]() - [Angel of the Annunciation]() - [Annunciation]() - [Annunciation]() - [Baptismal font: Annunciation to Zacharias]() - [Baptismal font: Annunciation to Zacharias]() - [Baptismal font: Prophet]() - [Baptismal font: Prophet]() - [Baptismal font: Prophet]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
