Facsimile painting from the 'Green Room' in the North Palace at Amarna ca. 1353-1336 B.C. New Kingdom, Amarna Period Nina de Garis Davies This painting is a restoration of a scene of marsh life that formed a continuous frieze in the so-called 'Green Room' in the North Palace at Amarna. The North Palace was a rather isolated structure on the Royal Road north of the Central City. In its final state, it was the palace of the king's eldest daughter and heir Meritaton; previously it may have been the palace of Kiya. From the entry at the west, courts, solar altars, and a window of appearance are succeeded by more reserved areas around what appears to have been a central well, including a throne room, formal and private apartments, kitchens and staff areas, and animal pens. At the northeast corner of the North Palace a sunken garden was surrounded on three sides by small cubicles, some of which had windows onto the central garden. Scenes of feeding fowl or waterbank scenes were found in many

The Garden of Eden last quarter 16th century British This panel was one of a set of three valances probably used to decorate the tester of a bed. Small elementsfruits, flowers, and leaveswere worked in tent stitch on canvas and then applied to the dark velvet foundation on which was worked the river in the Garden of Eden, the figures of Adam and Eve, and God the Father, in polychrome silk and metal threads. The garden is monumental, almost overwhelming the figures. The three trees that anchor the composition would have brought to mind the biblical description of trees in the Garden of Eden, the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. The scene of Adam and Eve being expelled from Eden on the far right may also derive from a reading of contemporary vernacular English Bibles, rather than any pictorial convention. Adam and Eve wear garments that suggest articles of late Elizabethan dress and the Geneva Bible of 1560 referred to their first clothes as "breeches." In this
