The Fall of Man is a religious painting by the Venetian artist Titian, created around 1550. Rendered in Oil on canvas, it vividly depicts the biblical story of Adam and Eve's temptation and subsequent fall, capturing a moment of divine judgment. The composition reflects the influence of Mannerism (late renaissance), with elongated figures and complex poses that evoke emotion and tension. Held in the Prado in Madrid, this masterpiece exemplifies Titian’s mastery in combining religious themes with innovative artistic style.
