From the collection of National Gallery of Art
The Last Supper is a 1475 paint by German 15th Century, a Renaissance work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows a group of men sitting around a table, all wearing halos. One man in the center holds a round object, like a plate or dish. The background looks simple, with just a few lines for hills or buildings. The colors are faded—mostly green, light pink, and yellow—but the lines are sharp and clear. The halos suggest these are religious figures, likely from a biblical story. This style of carving with added color was common in early printed art. Look up Renaissance next to see how this fits into that time period.
This 15th-century German artist carved vivid religious scenes into metal and wood, then hand-painted them in bright, symbolic colors.
