Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch

"Garden of Earthly Delights"
by Hieronymus Bosch
1505-1510
Oil on Wood
triptych

What strikes me about this triptych is the variety of subjects it discusses. Each panel discusses a subject that is under the umbrella of "earthly delights". In the first panel we see God introducing Eve to Adam, in the second panel, we see young people cavorting around big fruit (fertility symbols) and food, and in the last panel we see a dark background that looks sort of like a hell-scape with random abstract objects and people in despair. I feel an overall sense of eroticism when I look at this work.
After analysis, one may conclude that the painting is about earthly temptations and consequences of indulging in such earthly delights.
The color of the far right panel is much darker than the other two, but the horizon continues on through all three panels.
This is a very "busy" piece of art in that there is a lot of activity and movement.
