A photogravure, or "gravure", is a photographic image produced from a copper engraving plate. The process is rarely used today due to the high costs involved, but it produces prints which have the subtlety of a photograph and the art quality of a lithograph.


Gethsemane (Greek: Γεθσημανή, Gethsēmanē; Hebrew: גת שמני�‎, Gat-Šmânim; Syriac: ܓܕܣܡܢ‎, Ga� Šm�nê, lit. "oil press") is a garden at the foot of the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, most famous as the place where Jesus prayed and his disciples slept the night before Jesus' crucifixion.
