Gethsemene

22" x 28"  oil    SOLD    I do take commissions

A friend requested a painting in memory of her mother. We researched many old world paintings and finally decided on a painting by Carl Bloch (circa 1865.)  The tenderness of this angel comforting Christ in the garden where he sweat blood, touched our hearts so much.  The original painting was much larger with a large tree and dark sky and a base.  But we preferred the close up because of its power to pull you in.  It is finished and will be placed in a church.
I am so honored and loved copying this extraordinary beautiful subject.
contact me for commissions.  I require a Pay Pal deposit and lots of conversation before we even begin .
