How does this artwork elucidate its Description?
Lempicka was fond of repeating stories about the creation of Adam and Eve. The inspiration for this painting arose when a professional female model took a break to eat an apple. Lempicka asked her to hold the pose and started to sketch. She then invited a policeman who was making his rounds in the streets to pose for Adam. Lempicka contrasts the natural beauty of human bodies beauty with a barren, industrious cityscape.
