Albrecht Dürer’s “Christ on the Mount of Olives,” a 1521 engraving, depicts the moment before Jesus’ arrest. The composition is dramatic with Christ’s body outstretched and his three disciples sleeping in the foreground. The meticulous detail of the rocks and trees reflects Dürer's mastery of printmaking. This powerful depiction of Christ's agony in the Garden of Gethsemane is a testament to Dürer's artistic talent and religious devotion.
