Eve and her author

At this time we see the reflection of Eve in the mirror, while the artist himself sits facing the viewer. At the same time, the unnaturalness of the regular reflection and its inconsistency with the usual laws of physics is included into the painting. These details enhance the grotesque nature of the concept, as a symbol of rejection of natural forms. On the table, covered with a tablecloth, there is the same newspaper, which makes it possible to establish the artist’s belonging to the town of Smilovichi. Also the viewer can find all the same artistic symbols of Judaism in the style of another Jewish master of painting - Nathan Altman.
