The Dr. Martens Heaven Collection covers its shoe and bag designs with a historical painting: 'The Garden of Earthly Delights' by Early Netherlandish master Hieronymus Bosch. The original artwork, which is painted in oil on oak, depicts the biblical narrative of Creation as well as the torments of damnation. Considered a warning against life's temptations, it won't stop people from coveting this fashion line.
From the brand's iconic combat boots to its oxfords and satchel bags, the Dr. Martens Heaven Collection is a modern interpretation of the 16th century Flemish masterpiece. Full of subdued color, the pieces are particularly suited for the summer season.
Now available on the Dr. Marten's website, the Dr. Martens Heaven Collection can also be found in stores around the world, amongst them Urban Outfitters and Journeys.
