Chelsea Royal Hospital is always a lovely place for Masterpiece’s event. Cranach, Pieter Brueghel the Younger, Jan van Kessel and Bartholomeus Bruyn were all present as well as the grandiose portrayal of Earthly paradise by Jan Brueghel the Younger. Fauna and flora attract the favours of the painter, who places Adam and Eve in the background of the composition. This work, a symbol of the golden age, stems from his father's painting of 1615, which you could admire in the royal collections at Hampton Court Palace, just outside London.
