The focus of Ludmila Jiřincová's work was primarily young women, appearing as a symbol of human destiny. Eve holds an apple from the tree of knowledge in the garden of paradise under the moonlight. Here, the apple appears as a glowing entity that illuminates Eve's calm and smiling face, creating a symbolic counterpoint to the dark overgrown trees in the background, which are illuminated by the illusory light of the pale moon. It thus expresses the symbolic meaning of the apple - the forbidden fruit becomes the key to free decision-making, to the world that Eve will shape according to her own opinion. Eva Jiřincová's work is spoken of as dreamlike, mysterious, full of longing. She herself said that she first of all tries to express "the truth of her feeling".
