A Masterpiece of the High Renaissance
Leonardo da Vinci: The Last Supper, 1495, oil, tempera, fresco, Santa Maria delle Grazie, Milan. The Last Supper is a masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci, one of the most famous painters of the High Renaissance period. This iconic painting depicts Jesus Christ having his last meal with his disciples before his crucifixion. The scene is taken from the Gospel of John (13:21), where Jesus announces that one of his Twelve Apostles would betray him. The Museum Santa Maria delle Grazie (Milan, Italy) - This renowned museum in Milan is home to Leonardo da Vinci's famous mural, The Last Supper. Built between 1463 and 1490, the complex features exceptional Renaissance architecture by Guiniforte Solari and Donato Bramante. In 1980, it was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site due to its cultural importance.
Symbolism and Composition
Leonardo's Last Supper is dense with symbolic references. Attributes identify each apostle, such as Judas Iscariot clutching a small bag of silver coins, representing his betrayal. The balanced composition is anchored by an equilateral triangle formed by Christ’s body and the arching pediment above him, tracing a circle if completed.
