Agony in the Garden (c. 1405-1408)

Agony in the Garden is a 1405-1408 French painting in the international Gothic style, which has been in the Museo del Prado since May 2012.[1] It was produced in Paris on a Baltic oak panel. The artist is unknown, though it could by Colart de Leon (fl. 1377; died before 27 May 1417), who was painter and 'valet de chambre' to Louis I, Duke of Orléans, shown at bottom left and probably the commissioner of the work.[2]
