"Christ in the Garden of Olives" is an illuminated manuscript page from the Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry, a principal work attributed to the Limbourg brothers, commissioned by John, Duke of Berry. This artwork, created in the early 15th century, is part of a richly decorated book of hours containing prayers to be recited at canonical hours. The manuscript is renowned for its lavish decoration and the high quality of its miniatures, which are considered among the finest examples of European manuscript illumination from this period.

The scene depicted in "Christ in the Garden of Olives" illustrates the biblical episode of the Agony in the Garden from the New Testament, where Jesus prays while his disciples sleep, just before his betrayal and arrest. This particular miniature is noted for its dramatic emotional expression and intricate detail, characteristic of the Limbourg brothers' style. The use of vivid colors and detailed landscape elements also reflects the innovative approach of the artists in conveying narrative and emotion through art.

The Très Riches Heures, including this miniature, is housed at the Musée Condé, Chantilly, France. This work not only exemplifies Gothic art but also marks a significant development in the history of book illumination, influencing subsequent artists and styles in Europe. The manuscript's rich iconography and the brothers' attention to both theological and natural detail make "Christ in the Garden of Olives" a pivotal piece in the study of medieval art.
