''Supper at Emmaus'' is a masterpiece by the Italian Baroque painter Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, created in 1601 during the artist's mature period. The painting depicts the moment from the Gospel of Luke (24:30-31) when the resurrected Jesus reveals himself to two of his disciples in the village of Emmaus, only to vanish from their sight as they recognize him. This subject was a popular one for Christian art, symbolizing the Eucharist and the presence of Christ in the breaking of bread.

Caravaggio's interpretation of the ''Supper at Emmaus'' is renowned for its dramatic realism, emotional intensity, and innovative use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs stark contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and depth. The painting is characterized by a striking immediacy, as Caravaggio captures the astonishment and awe of the disciples at the precise moment of recognition. The composition is anchored by the figure of Christ at the center, who is depicted without a beard, which was an unconventional choice at the time, suggesting the youthful appearance of the resurrected Christ.

The work is also notable for its naturalistic details, such as the basket of fruit teetering on the edge of the table, which adds to the sense of a real, tangible event. Caravaggio's use of perspective and foreshortening draws the viewer into the scene, while the inclusion of still-life elements and the varied expressions of the figures contribute to the narrative and emotional complexity of the painting.

The ''Supper at Emmaus'' exists in two versions. The earlier version, painted in 1601, is housed in the National Gallery in London, while a later version from 1606 is located in the Pinacoteca di Brera in Milan. Both works exemplify Caravaggio's impact on the evolution of Western art, particularly in his ability to blend the sacred with the profane, and the ideal with the real. The ''Supper at Emmaus'' remains one of Caravaggio's most studied and admired paintings, reflecting his profound influence on the Baroque style and his enduring legacy in the history of art.
