EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print depicts the dramatic biblical scene of Judas kissing Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, this artwork captures a pivotal moment in Christian history. The image showcases Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus' apostles and ultimately his betrayer, leaning towards Christ to deliver a kiss. The guilt and treachery are palpable as the viewer witnesses this act of betrayal unfold amidst the serene backdrop of olive trees. The composition beautifully conveys the emotions at play - from Judas' conflicted expression to Jesus' calm acceptance. The soldiers lurking in the background symbolize impending arrest and persecution for Jesus, adding tension to an already charged atmosphere. This educational card serves as a visual tool for teaching about this significant event from the New Testament. It invites contemplation on themes such as loyalty, trust, and forgiveness within Christianity. As we gaze upon this powerful artwork, we are reminded of both human frailty and divine grace. It prompts us to reflect on our own actions and choices while exploring timeless questions surrounding faith and redemption. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece that continues to inspire viewers with its profound portrayal of one man's act of betrayal against another – forever etching it into religious history.
