Mantegna's Agony in the Garden #arthistory #artshorts

Richard Jacques (Zurbarán Doctoral Scholar at Durham University) takes a closer look at Andrea Mantegna's 'Agony in the Garden' (c.1455-56). This is an extract from our recent online event 'An Easter Story in Twelve Artworks', where we explored how Italian and Spanish artists between the 15-17th centuries grappled with presenting the events of Easter.
