About this work
This print shows an elongated ornamental design for a knife handle, with the Temptation of Adam and Eve depicted in an arched niche beneath a Latin inscription reading Peccatum and the Genesis reference. Below, putti flank an oval medallion and a standing female figure is framed in an oval, with a grotesque figure at the base.
