Augustinian Polyptych: Prayer in Gethsemane is a 1468 tempera by Nicolaus Haberschrack, held at National Museum in Kraków.
The painting depicts a scene of Jesus praying in Gethsemane, surrounded by his disciples. Jesus is shown kneeling in the center, with his hands clasped together in prayer. The disciples are seated around him, some with their heads bowed in sleep, while others appear to be watching over Jesus. The background of the painting is dark and somber, with a sense of foreboding. The use of tempera as the medium adds a sense of depth and texture to the painting. The overall mood of the painting is one of quiet contemplation and reverence. You can find more artworks like this at the National Museum in Kraków.
