You can attach this certificate to the back of canvas frame. The original painting is very popular at exhibitions, took part in the Biennale Lecce 2010. Was published in many catalogs, and also entered in the book SALENTOSILENTE where her Italian poet dedicated his verse.This picture is unique in that it is the only example in the visual arts where Eve is portrayed at the moment of the snake temptation. This study was conducted by a well-known Italian critic and art historian Gabriele Romeo, a summary of which is presented below. Critics of Gabriel Romeo ( art critic and art historian ) in the catalog “EXPOART” 2013 "Ana Sekach's works have strong figurative intensity. With the exception of the iconography of original sin performed by Adam and Eve, in the history of art we do not find many iconographic examples that we are able to provide visual information about their fall from Eden, which has generally never been addressed in the history of art.     In the picture "Fall of Eden or Resistance of Eve to the Serpent" something particular happens, something different. Ana Sekach imagines and constructs a red orbital space while, at the center of the composition almost devoid of any gravitational force, a woman (Eva) struggles with seduction with the snake (demon).     The work, besides being strongly symbolic, hides something that goes beyond the message of sin. Eva is represented in profile, seems to dance complacently with the snake instead of defeating it. Her eyes are fixed on the head of the snake and its foot touches its tail.    An interesting work, this that wants to be a spokesperson for the freedom of expression of our time. Finally, I managed to trace a certain iconographic link with Paolo and Francesca in an engraving by Gustave Dorè, the two characters present in the Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri. " . Criticism of art to Pompea Vergaro (art critic) ''The work of the artist bursting and possesses an extraordinary plasticity that invites the viewer to stop, after the first surprise in front of the image of this woman apparently clinging to a strong snake, terrible in form and color, in a surprising naturalism. Well, after a first and instantaneous disturbance, we stand next to each work and we realize that the woman witness to the first woman, par excellence, Eve young and vigorous and despite knowing how much danger there is in her hands, has a look of defiance that fear hides it well, because only in this way can survive it and win it in this resistance, which still carries on its skin ...
