"The Feast in the House of Levi" is a monumental painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Paolo Veronese, also known as Paolo Caliari. Completed in 1573, this grand canvas measures an impressive 555 cm × 1280 cm (18 ft 3 in × 41 ft 11 in) and is housed in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, Italy. Originally commissioned as a depiction of the Last Supper for the refectory of the Basilica di Santi Giovanni e Paolo in Venice, the painting became the subject of controversy due to its unconventional and elaborate portrayal of the biblical scene.

Veronese's work is characterized by its vibrant color palette, intricate details, and dynamic composition, which includes a multitude of figures engaged in various activities. The scene is set in a grand architectural setting, reminiscent of a Venetian palazzo, and features a diverse array of characters, including jesters, soldiers, and even animals, which were not traditionally associated with the solemnity of the Last Supper.

The painting's departure from traditional iconography led to Veronese being summoned before the Roman Catholic Inquisition. He was accused of irreverence and heresy for including what were considered inappropriate elements in a sacred scene. In his defense, Veronese argued that artists should be granted the freedom to exercise their creativity. To resolve the issue without altering the painting, he simply changed the title to "The Feast in the House of Levi," referencing a different biblical banquet described in the Gospel of Luke (5:29), thus circumventing the charges.

"The Feast in the House of Levi" stands as a testament to Veronese's artistic ingenuity and his ability to blend religious themes with the opulence and liveliness of Venetian culture. It remains one of the most celebrated works of the Venetian Renaissance, admired for its technical mastery and the boldness of its composition.
