From Graphik Zur Bibel

Bent in sorrow, Jesus prays on the Mount of Olives before his arrest, begging God to deliver him from suffering and death: “Abba, Father, for you all things are possible; remove this cup from me” (Mark 14:36). Beside him sleep the apostles Peter, James and John, in this woodcut of “Gethsemane” (1951), by Wolfgang Fräger. (compare with illumination from Les Très Riches Heures)
