EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 15th century print depicts Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane, a poignant scene from the New Testament of the Bible. The exact creator of this masterpiece remains unknown, but it is believed to have originated from Bavaria, Germany, during the fifteenth century. The print is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of this period, showcasing the skillful use of brown ink on laid paper. Christ is depicted in the foreground, deeply in prayer and surrounded by his disciples. The agony of the impending crucifixion is etched on his face, as he prays for God's will to be done. The disciples, huddled around him, appear anxious and concerned, their faces a mix of fear and confusion. The garden setting is beautifully rendered, with the lush greenery and the dark, ominous background adding to the overall mood of the scene. This print is a rare survival from the era of blockbooks and hand-tinted illustrations. The intricate details and the use of black and brown colours create a striking contrast, adding to the visual impact of the image. The print is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The scene of Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane is a powerful reminder of the human condition and the enduring power of faith.
