EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Raphael's masterpiece, "The Agony in the Garden" painted around 1504. The oil on wood composition measures 24.1x28.9 cm and is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, USA. Originally serving as the predella for Madonna and Child Enthroned with Saints, an altarpiece created for the Franciscan convent of Sant Antonio in Perugia, this artwork holds significant religious importance. The image captures a poignant moment from biblical history as Jesus Christ prays fervently in Gethsemane before his crucifixion. Surrounded by his disciples who are depicted sleeping nearby, this scene reflects both human vulnerability and divine strength. Raphael's masterful brushwork brings out intricate details that convey intense emotions and spiritual devotion. As part of the Italian Renaissance movement, this painting exemplifies the artistic brilliance prevalent during that era. Its inclusion within a church setting adds to its significance as an altar piece meant to inspire worshipers and deepen their connection to Christianity. "The Agony in the Garden" serves as a powerful reminder of faith and sacrifice while showcasing Raphael's exceptional talent as one of Italy's most renowned painters from centuries past. This timeless work continues to captivate viewers with its profound religious symbolism and exquisite execution, making it a cherished treasure within art history.
