In Adam en Eva in het paradijs (Adam and Eve in Paradise), Romain Malfliet depicts the classic Biblical moment when Eve offers the apple to Adam. The scene is rendered in warm earth tones, with light falling gently over the figures and surrounding nature. Soft, fluid brushwork and a balanced composition enhance the intimate atmosphere of the paradise setting. With refined technique and a keen sense of colour, Malfliet creates a harmonious and narrative composition that does justice to the symbolism of the subject.
