Christus in de hof van Getsemane met twee engelen 1661

Gilles Rousselet's 1661 etching, *Christus in de hof van Getsemane met twee engelen* (Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane with Two Angels) depicts the moment of Christ's agony in the garden before his crucifixion. The composition shows Christ kneeling in prayer, supported by an angel who comforts him. Another angel, hovering above, holds a chalice representing the bitter cup of suffering Christ must drink. The scene is set in a landscape with trees and rocks, creating a sense of solitude and contemplation. This work, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a powerful example of Baroque art's focus on emotion and drama.
