Español: Cristo y sus discípulos en Getsemaní

Un dibujo oscuro con aguada muestra a Cristo con un halo luminoso a la derecha, haciendo un gesto hacia un grupo de discípulos que duermen y se agrupan entre sombras. La luz cae sobre sus ropajes y sobre la figura barbuda y mayor del centro, mientras el primer plano es casi negro.
