"Agony in the Garden" is a notable early Renaissance painting by the Italian artist Andrea Mantegna, created around 1458-1460. This work is a detailed depiction of the biblical scene from the New Testament in which Jesus prays in the Garden of Gethsemane while his disciples, Peter, James, and John, sleep nearby. It is a moment of profound emotional turmoil for Jesus, as he anticipates his impending crucifixion, which Mantegna captures with dramatic effect.

The painting is renowned for its use of perspective and foreshortening, a technique that Mantegna mastered and for which he became famous. This is particularly evident in the sleeping figures of the disciples and the angular rocks that lead the viewer's eye towards the central figure of Jesus. The landscape in the background recedes to a distant view of Jerusalem under a night sky, which is rendered with meticulous attention to atmospheric perspective.

Mantegna's "Agony in the Garden" is also significant for its emotional intensity and the psychological depth with which the artist imbues the scene. The angel that appears to Jesus, offering a cup (symbolizing the Passion), is a poignant element that further emphasizes the gravity of the moment. The painting's composition, with its strong diagonals and contrasts of light and shadow, adds to the overall sense of drama and narrative tension.

Originally part of the predella of the San Zeno Altarpiece in Verona, the painting is now housed in the National Gallery, London. It is one of several versions of the subject by Mantegna, but it stands out for its innovative approach to space and perspective, as well as its emotional impact. As a masterwork of the early Renaissance, "Agony in the Garden" reflects the transition from the medieval representation of religious scenes to a more human-centered and naturalistic approach to biblical narratives.
