Albrecht Altdorfer Painting The Fall of Man.

The Fall of Man, 39 x 31.5 cm ; c.1535; Oil on hardboard transferred from panel; The National Gallery of Art, Washington DC, USA.

The man is holding the woman’s left shoulder asking her to enjoy with him. The woman too seems to be in acceptance mode. There is another nude woman in the background. There is a wine jar near the couple. This perhaps signifies the garden of Eden.
