The hand of God was made between the years 1896-1902. I chose this piece because it's a very powerful sculpture. The big hand is God's hand, because he creates everything. The hand is holding something that looks like a rock. The rock is similar to the shape of an anatomically correct heart. Then on the other side are two people intertwined in the rock. Those two people represent Adam and Eve. The way that I interpreted it, the man and woman are intertwined into the heart shaped rock because they are in love. God is holding them because God creates everything. He created Adam, Eve, as well as the feeling of love.
