Discuss the style and iconography of Creation and Fall of Adam and Eve by Wiligelmo.

What will be an ideal response?

The ideal Answer should include:
1. On the far left of the sculpted panel, God appears in a mandorla supported by angels as both creator and Christ (indicated by the cruciform halo).
2. The narrative develops in three scenes from left to right: God creates Adam, then brings Eve from Adam's side, and Adam and Eve cover themselves in shame as they eat the fruit from the forbidden tree, around which the serpent twists.
3. Smooth modeling and sharp undercutting give the figures a strong sense of three-dimensionality, and a framing arcade establishes a stage like setting, with rock and tree serving as scenery.
4. The figures exude life and personality, conveying the emotional depth of the narrative they enact, and bright paint, now almost totally lost, must have increased their impact.
