EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane" captured by Crispijn van den Broeck in 1571, we are transported to a moment of profound spiritual significance. The image depicts Christ, surrounded by his eleven apostles, experiencing an intense agony as he prays fervently. The garden setting of Gethsemane serves as a poignant backdrop for this pivotal moment in Christian history. As we observe the scene, we notice that most of the apostles are overcome with exhaustion and have succumbed to sleep. However, Peter, John, and James remain awake at Christ's side while Judas leads a group of soldiers towards them through the gate. The circular frame entirely encompasses the composition, drawing our attention solely to this sacred event unfolding before us. We witness Christ's plea to God as he asks for the cup to pass from him. In response to his anguish, an angel presents itself offering solace and support. This powerful image captures not only Christ's vulnerability but also his unwavering commitment to fulfilling his divine purpose. It invites contemplation on themes of sacrifice and redemption central to Christianity. Quint Lox has skillfully curated this piece from Liszt Collection without any commercial intentions; instead, it serves as a testament to the enduring power and beauty found within religious art throughout history.
