Adam and Eve
Ellen Kolk's 'Adam and Eve' of 1970 is a dolomite pair of stocky, naked figures with luxuriant hair, about 1.35 metres tall. For decades it stood in the Commandant's Garden on Toompea, where weather and vandals took their toll, so in 2008 the original was taken into the care of the Kumu art museum and the sculptor made a copy to stand in its place. Since 2016 the original has lived among the palms of the Tallinn Botanic Garden's Palm House, and in 2019 the copy moved to the lawn in front of Luther villa, the Tallinn wedding registry office on Pärnu road.

Ellen Kolgi 1970. aasta „Aadam ja Eeva” on dolomiidist paar jässakaid, lopsakate juustega alasti kujusid, umbes 1,35 meetri kõrgune. Aastakümneid seisis see Toompeal Komandandi aias, kus ilm ja vandaalid seda kahjustasid, mistõttu viidi originaal 2008. aastal hoiule Kumusse ja skulptor valmistas selle asemele autorikoopia. Alates 2016. aastast elab originaal Tallinna Botaanikaaia Palmimajas palmide keskel ning 2019. aastal viidi koopia Pärnu maanteel asuva Lutheri villa ehk Tallinna perekonnaseisuameti ette haljasalale.
