About the piece
Painted in 1880 by Scottish artist John Faed, this work captures the poignant moment of the Expulsion from Eden. Faed uses dramatic lighting to contrast the divine radiance of the angel with the darkening world the figures must enter, creating a powerful narrative scene typical of late 19th-century academic painting.
