A vertically oriented print in black ink on cream paper depicts nude Adam and Eve, a man and woman with light skin tones. On the left, Adam has curly hair and points upward. Eve stands centrally with long, wavy hair, holding fruit with both hands. To our right, a winged, scaly creature with a large claw hangs from a tree. A small elephant appears in the background. The bottom center reads "Rembrandt f. 1638."
