Is dòcha gur e an ìomhaigh de Adhamh agus Eubha ann an Gàrradh Eden, a chaidh a ghlacadh ann an àm cinnteach de bhuaireadh, aon de na riochdachaidhean as suaicheanta de pheacadh. Tha aon de na dealbhan iomadach a rinn Lucas Cranach den chàraid a thuit an-dràsta ri fhaicinn mar phàirt de thaisbeanadh sònraichte aig An Gailearaidh Nàiseanta, Lunnainn, a bheir còmhla obair le Bruegel, Titian, agus Velázquez, am measg feadhainn eile. Air a ghlèidheadh leis an Dr Joost Joustra, tha 'Sin' a' feuchainn ri sùil a thoirt air 'beachdan diadhachd iom-fhillte agus dealbhan de ghiùlan làitheil 'pheacach' a tha a' cur an aghaidh nan crìochan eadar ealain chràbhach is saoghalta.'

Ann an Crìosdaidheachd thràth, bha peacadh air a mheas mar eucoir an aghaidh lagh dhiadhaidh, le daoine fa-leth a’ creidsinn gun sgriosadh giùlan sònraichte an dàimh eadar duine agus Dia. Bha iad sin air an cruinneachadh ann an seata de bhreugan - ana-miann, glutadh, sannt, leisg, uaill, fearg, agus farmad - ris an canar cuideachd na seachd peacaidhean ‘marbhtach’ no ‘càrdanail’. B’ e an t-strì beusach eadar leas agus buadhan fearann torrach airson mac-meanmna ealanta. Dh'fhàs luchd-ealain an sàs ann a bhith a' riochdachadh fallasachd dhaoine san obair aca, ach mar a dh'fhàs an comann-sòisealta na bu mhiosa, dh'fhàs na h-aithrisean cainnteach seo cho fasanta.

Tha an dealbh 'The Tête à Tête' le Uilleam Hogarth bhon t-sreath 'Marriage A-la-Mode' air a ghabhail a-steach san taisbeanadh. Às deidh cho soirbheachail sa bha na sgeulachdan moralta aige, A Harlot's Progress (1732) agus A Rake's Progress (1735), 'Marriage A-la-Mode' aoir air pòsadh eagraichte. Anns an dàrna dealbh, tha na pòstaichean ùra air am faicinn mar 'chàraid ghoireasachd'.
