The First Mourning

This work depicts the moment after Adam and Eve just found the body of their son Abel, who was murdered by Cain. This is the first human death recorded in the Bible. 
William-Adolphe Bouguereau had suffered the loss of his second son shortly before painting this work.
Its original name is ""Premier Deuil", in French, of which "The First Mourning"" is a literal translation.
