'The Agony in the Garden' is a compelling 1590 religious painting by El Greco, demonstrating considerable influence from Titian. Created during his second stay in Toledo, this masterpiece unfolds a profound story over the medium of canvas by using oil in its creation. The artist's notable shift towards Mannerism (late renaissance) is strongly signified in this painting. Currently, it is a prized display at the Toledo Art Museum in Toledo, Ohio. El Greco or his studio's creative zeal and aptitude exemplify the essence of 16th century religious artwork through 'The Agony in the Garden'.
