Gethsemane
In Gethsemane, Turner paints solitude rather than suffering: the weight of a decision borne in silence. The composition comes from study of scripture, geography, and historical context, and light and shadow carry obedience and resolve. The painting honors the moment where faith is chosen without witnesses.
