Christ in the Gethsemane

In the illumination Jesus Christ is placed in a landscape made up of the rocky soil of the Gethsemane. It is possible to see a black horizon representing the darkness of the night, above which you can see a blue stripe with the stars and the crescent.

A wide gap and a high rock separate Christ on the right, bent to pray, from Christ on the left, wakening the apostles up.

Their fi gures are almost indecipherable because of wear and tear of the parchment.
