![Garofalo - The Agony in the Garden [c.1520-39] by Gandalf's Gallery](http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7046/6966412705_70b40ac0d4.jpg)
Jesus prays in the Garden of Gethsemane, near Jerusalem (seen in the left background), while three of his disciples sleep. An angel reveals a chalice containing a cross. Judas approaches on the right with the Roman soldiers who will arrest Jesus. Dramatic nocturnes were a novelty in north Italian painting associated with Giorgione.
