France, 19th century
Gilded copper.

A piled-up figurative scene showing Jesus in the Garden of Ogród.
A man kneeling among climbing foliage, bows his head sadly. Surrounded by radiant glory, he is supported by accompanying angels.
One of them gives the Savior the martyr's palm and the chalice with the crown of thorns. Their presence is a symbolic announcement of the coming suffering.
