Agony in the Garden
Working in the St Volodymyr's Cathedral in Kiev, Svedosmky painted the northern and southern naves of the cathedral, creating six scenes from the life of Jesus: "The Resurrection of Lazarus", "The Entry of Christ into Jerusalem", "The Last Supper", "The Agony in the Garden", "The Trial of Pilate", "The Crucifixion" and "The Ascension". During his later years Svedomsky turned to Russian subjects, painting "The Poor Bride", "The Fool in Christ", "The Fire of Moscow, 1812" (1879) and "The Execution of Yermak".
