The Painting

The Last Supper

is an oil on canvas painting executed in 1592-1594, and it is housed in the Basilica di San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice, Italy. The painting depicts the biblical scene of the Last Supper, where Jesus shares his final meal with his apostles before his crucifixion.

Size and Media

The painting measures 365 x 568 cm (11.9 x 18.6 ft), making it a large-scale work that dominates the space where it is displayed. The media used is oil on canvas, which allows for rich colors and detailed brushwork.

Description

Tintoretto's interpretation of the Last Supper is unique in its composition and use of light. Instead of placing Jesus and the apostles at the center of the scene, Tintoretto situates them to the side, with secondary characters such as a woman carrying a dish or servants taking dishes from the table occupying the center. The use of light appears to come into obscurity from both the light on the ceiling and from Jesus himself, creating a sense of divine presence.

The Last Supper is housed in the Basilica di San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice, Italy, which is a prominent religious and cultural landmark located on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore. The basilica is known for its impressive architecture and artistic treasures, making it a must-visit destination for art lovers and history buffs alike.
