Painting Description
"The Supper at Emmaus" (c. 1620) is a painting by the Spanish artist Diego Rodríguez de Silva y Velázquez, one of the most significant figures of the Spanish Golden Age and a leading artist in the court of King Philip IV. This early work of Velázquez, created when the artist was in his early twenties, depicts the biblical scene from the Gospel of Luke (24:13-32), where the resurrected Jesus reveals himself to two of his disciples in the village of Emmaus.
The painting is notable for its dramatic use of chiaroscuro and the realistic portrayal of the figures, which would become hallmarks of Velázquez's mature style. In "The Supper at Emmaus," Velázquez captures the moment of recognition, as the disciples realize the identity of their companion when he breaks bread with them. The artist's attention to detail and his ability to convey the emotional intensity of the scene demonstrate his mastery of narrative and his deep understanding of human psychology.
Measuring approximately 55 x 117.5 cm, the artwork is executed in oil on canvas. It showcases Velázquez's skill in composition and his innovative approach to light and shadow, which contributes to the overall sense of depth and volume in the painting. The work is also an example of the naturalism that characterized Spanish Baroque painting, with Velázquez's use of ordinary people as models for the biblical figures, grounding the miraculous event in the realm of the everyday.
"The Supper at Emmaus" is part of Velázquez's oeuvre that reflects his early Sevillian period, influenced by the tenebrism of Caravaggio and the naturalism of his contemporaries. The painting is held in a private collection and has been exhibited in various art institutions, contributing to the understanding of Velázquez's development as an artist and the broader context of 17th-century Spanish art.
