THE LAST SUPPER

-

- A masterpiece of the Italian High Renaissance and one of the best-known works

of Christian art - illustrates the scene from the last days of Jesus Christ, as
described in the Gospel of John 13:21. Flanked by his twelve apostles, Jesus has
just declared that one of them will betray him. ("Verily I say unto you: one of you
will betray me.") The picture depicts the reaction of each disciple to the news.
Although on the surface it looks like a straightforward piece of Biblical art, it is in
fact an exceptionally complex work, whose mathematical symbolism,
psychological complexity, use of perspective and dramatic focus, make it the first
real example of High Renaissance aesthetics.
