| Reverse description | Full-color reproduction of Albrecht Dürer's engraving 'Agony in the Garden' (c. 1515), rendered in warm sepia and amber tones against a textured golden background on the rectangular field. The central composition depicts Christ kneeling in supplication with arms raised toward heaven, where a descending angel bearing a chalice and cross appears in the upper left. Three apostles — Peter, James, and John — are shown sleeping in various poses of repose in the foreground and middle ground, faithfully reproducing Dürer's characteristic dense cross-hatching technique. Dürer's monogram tablet AD is visible in the lower right corner of the engraved image. The overall design is set within a rectangular format with a marbled amber border framing the central intaglio-style artwork. |
