"The Gathering of the Manna" is a fresco by the Italian painter Bernardino Luini, a notable artist of the Lombard school who was profoundly influenced by Leonardo da Vinci. Painted between 1520 and 1523, this work is a representation of the biblical episode described in the Book of Exodus, where God provides manna from heaven to the Israelites during their exodus from Egypt.

Luini's fresco is renowned for its delicate color palette and the graceful figures that reflect the influence of Leonardo's style, particularly in the treatment of the drapery and the soft, chiaroscuro modeling of the faces. The composition is harmoniously arranged, with groups of figures, including women and children, engaged in the miraculous gathering of manna. The scene is set in a landscape that suggests the wilderness through which the Israelites traveled, yet it also bears the idyllic and serene qualities typical of Renaissance paintings.

The fresco is part of a larger decorative scheme in the monastery of Santa Maria della Pace in Milan, where Luini was commissioned to adorn the walls with scenes from the Old Testament. This work is considered one of the highlights of Luini's career and is a significant example of High Renaissance art in Northern Italy. The fresco's state of preservation and the exact location within the monastery are subjects of interest to art historians, as they provide insight into the artistic practices and religious environments of the period.

"The Gathering of the Manna" by Bernardino Luini is a testament to the diffusion of Leonardo's influence beyond his immediate circle and stands as a testament to the enduring power of religious narratives in Renaissance art. The fresco remains an important piece for the study of Renaissance techniques, iconography, and the cultural context of early 16th-century Italy.
