About the piece
Created in 1629 by Johann König, this masterful oil on copper painting illustrates the biblical scene of Paradise. The composition is rich with symbolism and zoological detail, featuring a menagerie of creatures—from a peacock and a serpent in the tree to lions, bears, and deer—rendered with the fine precision typical of Northern European works on metal supports.
