"The Fall of Man," Cornelis Corneliszoon van Haarlem, 1592.
Van Haarlem (1562-1638) was a painter of the Dutch Golden Age, a leader of the Northern Mannerist style, and an important precursor to Frans Hals in the realm of portraiture.
He started off as a painter of mythological subjects, with very Italian-inspired and fairly artificial styles, but later came to embrace a more Realist style favored in the Netherlands. He studied in France but was born in and spent his adult life in the city of Haarlem, where he became the official city painter, with a number of official commissions. He also was a noted portraitist, becoming an important influence on later painters, although his history, Biblical, and mythical scenes sometimes seem more like chances to paint naked bodies than anything else. Lots of bare limbs, buttocks thrust at the viewer, people being unclad for the sake of being unclad, to the point that the scene and its meaning get lost in all the flesh. I guess that's the Mannerist style for you...
From the RIjksmuseum, Amsterdam.

1/ Apologies to Rodgers and Mr H, but "How do you solve a problem like El Greco?"
Born Domḗnikos Theotokópoulos, #Byzantium #Art was his thing till, aged 26, he moved to Venice. Here, he admired the muscular figures, dramatic gestures and #Mannerist distortions of Tintoretto.
But the money led to Rome. 7 yrs later he was run out of town for dissing #Michelangelo (a lot).
Madrid next, but no luck at court. So he washed up in Toledo where, finally, he was much loved.
