# Adam and Eve [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [UNKNOWN MASTER, Flemish]() - Date: 1501-1550 - Technique: Black chalk, partly stumped, 621 x 468 mm ## Commentary Adam and Eve c. 1525 Black chalk, partly stumped, 621 x 468 mm Museum of Art, Providence, Rhode Island The author of this composition is undoubtedly Jan Gossart but the execution of the drawing shows that it cannot be his work. The drawing most likely originated in Gossart's immediate circle and may even have been created under his supervision. It is the most frankly erotic composition in Gossart's oeuvre. ## Related artworks - [A Young Witch]() - [Adam and Eve]() - [Adam and Eve]() - [Adoration of the Magi \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Magi \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Magi \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
