This painting, titled "Cacciata di Adamo ed Eva dal Paradiso" (Expulsion of Adam and Eve from Paradise) by Giovanni di Paolo, depicts the biblical scene of Adam and Eve being expelled from the Garden of Eden. The painting is divided into two distinct sections: one depicting a stylized cosmos with God pointing towards the Earth, and the other showcasing the expulsion itself. The style reflects the artist's characteristic blend of late medieval and early Renaissance elements, with elongated figures, flat perspective, and vibrant, symbolic colors.
