Beautiful French oil on canvas from 1600 depicting Christ Jesus with Angel. 17th century style frame from the 20th century.

Jesus Christ in the Garden (prayer on the Mount of Olives). An angel with a cup appears to Jesus.

The prayer in the garden of olive trees for Jesus was a dramatic moment in life, where the divine will and the human will came into conflict, in an attempt to reject each other, but also with the intent to come to an agreement. It is the first painful mystery: Gethsemane, an obligatory passage on the path upwards, towards the Father.
