EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the intense scene of "The Agony in the Garden" from 1926. Created by Eric Gill, a renowned artist of the 20th century, this wood engraving beautifully illustrates the poignant moment just before Christ's arrest. Set in the Garden of Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, Jesus is depicted kneeling with an expression of anguish on his face. Surrounded by three disciples who are fast asleep under a tree, Jesus finds solace as an angel appears to offer him strength and support during this challenging time. The intricate details of Gill's woodcut technique bring depth and emotion to every line and shadow. In this profound composition, we witness Jesus grappling with his impending fate while holding a chalice symbolizing his sacrifice. The cross looms ominously in the background, foreshadowing what lies ahead for him. Part of the Historica Graphica Collection, this monochrome masterpiece invites viewers to reflect upon their own struggles and find inspiration through faith. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of agony and despair, there is always hope and divine intervention available to guide us through our darkest hours. This wood engraving is not only a testament to Eric Gill's artistic genius but also a timeless representation of one of Christianity's most significant events.
