EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in biblical history - Jesus praying at Gethsemane. As the evening shadows fall, we witness Jesus deep in prayer while his disciples Peter, James, and John succumb to weariness and sleep. The image beautifully depicts the contrast between their physical exhaustion and Jesus' spiritual anguish. In this profound scene, Jesus reveals the depth of his sorrowful soul as he prepares for the ultimate sacrifice that awaits him. His words echo with intensity: "My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death". Despite his immense burden, he implores his disciples to remain vigilant and watchful. Illustrated by William Hole in 1913, this artwork brings to life an essential chapter from The Life of Jesus Nazareth. Through intricate details and masterful strokes, Hole skillfully portrays the emotional weight carried by Christ during these final moments before his crucifixion. This powerful image serves as a reminder of faith's endurance amidst adversity. It symbolizes both human frailty and divine strength intertwined within one extraordinary individual - Jesus Christ. As viewers contemplate this scene from centuries past, they are invited to reflect on their own relationship with prayer and seek solace in its transformative power. The print stands as a testament to Christian values and offers inspiration for those seeking guidance through religious devotion.
