Painting Description
"The Last Supper" is a renowned engraving by the Dutch artist Hendrick Goltzius, dated to 1585. This work is part of a series depicting scenes from the Passion of Christ, which Goltzius produced towards the end of the 16th century. Known for his virtuosity in engraving, Goltzius's "The Last Supper" is a testament to his skill in capturing complex narratives and emotions within a single frame.
The engraving illustrates the biblical scene of the Last Supper, where Jesus Christ shares his final meal with the Twelve Apostles before his crucifixion, as described in the New Testament. Goltzius's interpretation is noted for its intricate detail, dramatic use of light and shadow, and the expressive gestures and faces of the figures, which convey the tension and foreboding of the event. The composition is carefully constructed to guide the viewer's eye towards the central figure of Christ, who is depicted at the moment of instituting the Eucharist or identifying Judas Iscariot as his betrayer, depending on the interpretation.
Hendrick Goltzius (1558–1617) was a leading figure in the Northern Mannerist movement, which was characterized by an emphasis on artificial elegance and the elongation of forms. His works are distinguished by their technical excellence and the fusion of Northern and Italianate styles. "The Last Supper" exemplifies Goltzius's mastery of the engraving medium and his ability to translate complex theological and emotional narratives into visual art.
This engraving is not only significant for its artistic merit but also for its place within the context of the Counter-Reformation, during which religious artworks were used as a means of reaffirming Catholic doctrine and inspiring devotion. "The Last Supper" by Goltzius remains an important work for scholars studying the art and religious culture of the late 16th century, as well as for enthusiasts of printmaking and the history of graphic arts.
