At the moment I'm providing on this page just a sample JWK key pair. This key pair is "just" the JWK representation of the sample RSA key pair used in other articles.
The keys are usually printed in one line, for better reading I put each element in a different line.
RSA private key (2048 bit key length) in JWK-encoding:

RSA public key (2048 bit key length) in JWK-encoding:
{
"kty":"RSA",
"e":"AQAB",
"n":"8EmWJUZ_Osz4vXtUU2S-0M4BP9-s423gjMjoX-qP1iCnlcRcFWxthQGN2CWSMZwR_vY9V0un_nsIxhZSWOH9iKzqUtZD4jt35jqOTeJ3PCSr48JirVDNLet7hRT37Ovfu5iieMN7ZNpkjeIG_CfT_QQl7R-kO_EnTmL3QjLKQNV_HhEbHS2_44x7PPoHqSqkOvl8GW0qtL39gTLWgAe801_w5PmcQ38CKG0oT2gdJmJqIxNmAEHkatYGHcMDtXRBpOhOSdraFj6SmPyHEmLBishaq7Jm8NPPNK9QcEQ3q-ERa5M6eM72PpF93g2p5cjKgyzzfoIV09Zb_LJ2aW2gQw"
}
In this encoding it is easy to see that a RSA private key contains all the information of a public key plus some more parameter.
