About this work
Christ makes himself known in the garden of Gethsemane. Judas, his betrayer, and the soldiers recoil and fall to the ground. In the background Simon Peter draws his sword to cut off the right ear of Malchus. Below the image a four-line verse in Latin. This print is part of an album.
