Chapter 2
In traditional versions, the Fall is depicted symmetrically, with Adam and Eve on either side of the Tree of Knowledge and the serpent between them, coiled around the trunk. However, modern artists dispensed with Adam to concentrate on the theme of the complicity between the woman and the serpent, identifying the two with Temptation.
