In the heavenly Garden of Eden, two angels are looking down on Adam, who is sleeping, and on Eve, who is sitting up and smiling. A colorful scene surrounds the blossoming apple tree. Creatures - large and small - and the creeping snake are living in harmony. The sun, the stars and the moon show night and day. Adam and Eve lived in a magical place of many opposites and contrasts.
