Christ at Gethsemane
c.1853-1876Albumen print | 22.9 x 19.0 cm (sheet of paper) | RCIN 850239
The figure of Christ is related to that painted by Lo Spagna in 'The Agony in the Garden' now in the National Gallery, London (inv. no. NG 1032; a photograph of which is at RCIN 850235). This painting was traditionally thought to be by Raphael, but it has been recently attributed to Lo Spagna or a follower of Pietro Perugino. Four cartoon fragments, preparatory for this painting, by Lo Spagna are now in the Uffizi, Florence (inv. no. 410E; see RCIN 850236 for a photograph of these). The painting is based on the 'Agony in the Garden', executed by Perugino for the church of San Giusto, Florence, and now in the Uffizi. See Bibliographic References for further information.
