Painting Description
"The Last Supper" (c. 1486) is a fresco by the Italian Renaissance painter Domenico Ghirlandaio, located in the refectory of the Convent of Ognissanti in Florence, Italy. This work is one of several renditions of the Last Supper from the Renaissance period, a theme that depicts the final meal Jesus shared with his apostles before his crucifixion, as described in the New Testament of the Bible.
Ghirlandaio's interpretation of the Last Supper showcases his mastery of fresco technique and his ability to blend traditional religious themes with the emerging humanist ideals of the time. The painting is notable for its detailed representation of the figures and the use of perspective to create a sense of depth and space, inviting viewers to engage with the scene as if they were present at the event.
The fresco measures approximately 400 x 800 cm and is significant for its portrayal of the apostles' reactions to Jesus's announcement that one of them would betray him. Ghirlandaio's attention to the individual expressions and gestures of the apostles contributes to the narrative and emotional impact of the scene. The inclusion of still-life elements, such as the dishes and food on the table, reflects the artist's interest in the naturalistic depiction of objects, which was a hallmark of Renaissance art.
Commissioned by the wealthy Vespucci family, whose patronage supported the decoration of the Ognissanti convent, Ghirlandaio's Last Supper was part of a larger decorative scheme that included other religious scenes. The fresco has been praised for its composition and the harmonious integration of architectural elements, which serve to frame and enhance the biblical narrative.
Over the centuries, the fresco has undergone various restorations to address damage caused by environmental factors and the passage of time. Today, it remains an important example of Ghirlandaio's work and a valuable piece of Renaissance art history, attracting scholars and visitors alike who seek to appreciate its artistic and cultural significance.
