Painting Description
''Christus am Ölberg'' (Christ on the Mount of Olives) is a copper engraving by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created in 1515. This work is part of Dürer's larger body of religious-themed engravings and reflects his deep engagement with Christian iconography. The engraving depicts the biblical scene of Jesus Christ praying in the Garden of Gethsemane on the night before his crucifixion, an event described in the Synoptic Gospels of the New Testament.
In the scene, Christ is shown in a moment of human vulnerability and divine communion, kneeling and looking upwards towards an angel who presents him with the cup of suffering, symbolizing the ordeal he is about to endure. The composition is notable for its dramatic use of light and shadow, which serves to heighten the emotional intensity of the moment. Dürer's masterful technique captures the textures of the natural setting, the anguish on Christ's face, and the attentive poses of the sleeping apostles, Peter, James, and John, who are depicted in the background.
''Christus am Ölberg'' is considered an important work in Dürer's oeuvre, exemplifying his skill in conveying complex theological themes through art. It also reflects the influence of Italian Renaissance art on Dürer, particularly in its use of perspective and anatomical realism, which he studied during his travels in Italy. The engraving is held in high regard for its artistic merit and its contribution to the visual interpretation of a pivotal New Testament narrative. It remains a subject of study for art historians and scholars of the Renaissance and continues to be appreciated for its technical excellence and its evocative portrayal of a key moment in Christian iconography.
