"Kristus i Gethsemane" is a painting by W.A. Müller, created between 1748 and 1816. The painting depicts the biblical scene of Jesus Christ's agony in the Garden of Gethsemane, shortly before his crucifixion. The painting features a detailed depiction of Jesus, with his head bowed in prayer as he is comforted by angels. The dramatic use of light and shadow creates a sense of deep emotion and spirituality, highlighting the powerful message of Christ's sacrifice. This painting is currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst and is a testament to Müller's talent for portraying religious themes with profound artistic expression.
