It's pissed that its stupid servants are playing with each other and not feeding him. I'm pretty sure God and the cat were in agreement on the idiocy of those new fangled human things.

There are two goats, a male and a female. The cat should be worried.

Re: Marjorie Taylor Greene [R - Deliverance Country]
I wasn't gonna say a damn word about the second goat. The first goat is all alone more than most people can handle, but the second goat, well, that's some next level weirdness, the kind of stuff that would make Hunter Thompson recoil in horror.

It was the sign of health back in the era when that was painted. Slender people were viewed as poor and undernourished. Check other paintings from that era and you'll see them built the same way.

Nobody seems to have mentioned the serpent with a female head above and to the right of the lady.
Might could be a early version of Empty Gee, yesno?

Hendrick Goltzius
The Fall of Man, 1616
Overview
In about 1600, Hendrick Goltzius, who was famous across Europe for his extraordinary abilities as a draftsman and printmaker, turned his talents to painting. In 1616 he painted this magnificent image of Adam and Eve reclining in the Garden of Eden like mythological lovers. By placing the almost life-size figures so close to the front of the picture plane, Goltzius entices the viewer to become emotionally engaged in this biblical narrative. Traditionally, images of the Fall emphasize shame, punishment, and the origins of humanity’s mortality, but Goltzius has chosen to present the event as a seduction based on physical attraction. Eve, with her back to the viewer, has already taken the first bite of the apple and turns with a knowing gaze toward Adam, who is utterly mesmerized by his companion.
Animals provide symbolical commentary. The serpent’s sweet female face represents the deceptiveness of appearances. The elephant in the distant field refers to the Christian virtues of piety, temperance, and chastity and serves as a symbolic contrast to Adam’s weakness of the flesh and infidelity to God. Goltzius included two goats, sometimes symbols for Eve, signifying a lack of chastity. The cat, representing the unjust judge, solemnly reminds viewers not to enjoy what they should condemn, lest they too cause more harm than good. Through these many symbolic references Goltzius suggests that humanity’s fall from grace is tied to Adam and Eve’s inability to restrain their physical appetites. The work exists within the classicist tradition, yet with this lavish painting Goltzius created an early example of what would be called the baroque style, a naturalistic manner of representation that depends upon the viewer’s empathetic response to fulfill its meaning.

I want to know how Adam got a haircut. I also assume that's Eve because of the long hair. But we can only see the person's back, so it could be Steve.

Since the Garden of Eden was allegedly either in Africa or the Middle East, I want to know why they look pasty white. Was the Garden underground?

Why does Adam have no facial or body hair? Did doG create Gillette razors and Nair at the same time as Adam?
And they both look pudgy and outa shape... not what I'd imagine for a couple yougins spending 24-7 outside. Even the concern-cat needs to go on a diet.
