agree  kellyn: It is definitely the agony in the garden ** IF ** we mean the "oracion" paintings by EITHER "El Greco" OR Goya. For Boticelli I am not sure

agree  Maria Teijido: It is translated as agony in the garden, although oración here really means prayer; I think it depicts the scene where Jesus was praying in the garden before getting arrested so he wasn't quite in agony yet, i guess..
