Cool stylish Bathsheba

Bathsheba (1570) by the Italian mannerist painter Giovan Battista Naldini (1537-1591). It’s a cool elegant reduction on the essentials.

Women with Snake

Women with a Snake by the Belarusian photographer Eugene Buzuk. Sure that neither Eve nor Lilith are mentioned here, but the biblical context on woman, sin, snake etc is obvious.

Elegant Judith

Judith and Holofernes (1577/78) by the Italian Renaissance painter Tintoretto (1518–1594).

Poor Hagar

Abraham sending away Hagar and Ishmael by the Flemish Baroque painter Anthonis van Dyck. Hagar looks still like a seductress because she is half-naked while in the back the chaste Sarah can be seen.

Sweet Susanna

Susanna and the Elders (1751) by the Italian painter Pompeo Girolamo Batoni (1708-1787). It’s mostly a a neoclassical painting with a strong rococo influence – i.e. the sweet surprised girl.

Lost Paradise

Eve (1911) by the British painter John Collier (1850-1934).

Good selling Sins

Paulette Goddard as evil pagan princess in the movie "Sins of Jezebel" from 1953. That’s how people imagined bible women in the 1950s.
