Yeah. That's not unusual theory.
Someone showed me a book featuring painters. He focused on a specific one: the artist drew that depicts the serpent tempting Eve in the garden as looking like this. He wanted to know my thoughts about it.
The creature has a feminine face.. Also, notice the shape of Eve's tummy. -

So that thing isn't the serpent at all.
Sure it is. Hugo van der Goes was imagining how it might have looked
before
it was cursed to go upon its belly (Genesis 3:14).

It's attributed to Hugo van der Goes. But it's also said that some 70% of his work has not survived, and there's some uncertainty about which surviving works actually bore his hand, and which were done by the school he oversaw, i.e. assistants, copiers, etc.

Interesting interpretation. God does curse it afterwards to crawl on its belly. So the assumption would be it had legs before. But like I said, it is one of the most unsavory depictions of the devil or the serpent I have ever seen.
The tempting Serpent is depicted as a bipedal salamander-like creature because it was assumed that the serpent could walk before God's curse compelled it to crawl and eat dust.[2] The human-headed Serpent was introduced into art in the late 13th century.[2] Subsequent Renaissance artists generally abandoned the depiction of Serpent as a human-headed creature.[2]
