Giuseppe Arcimboldo - Adam and Eve-
13.1.11
My little one and I are truly enjoying this year our studies on Botany; we are currently studying about fruits and I wanted to introduce her to the paintings of this quite exotic and imaginative Italian painter from the XVI century, Giuseppe Arcimboldo, who loved to make portrait heads using objects like fruits, vegetables, flowers and others.
Well, while looking at his work, two paintings stood out, (none related to our fruits' study, though) The Portrait of Eve and the Portrait of Adam.
