EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Pedro Berruguete's masterpiece, "The Last Supper" created between 1495 and 1500. The painting, which measures an impressive 189.6x330.6 cm, is housed in the prestigious Los Angeles County Museum of Art in California, USA. In this iconic depiction of the biblical event, we witness a gathering of Jesus Christ and his apostles during their final meal together before his crucifixion. Each figure is adorned with a golden halo except for Judas Iscariot, who wears a black crown as he sits rigidly on the far right side of the composition. His clenched grip on the bag of silver coins symbolizes his infamous betrayal. Notably, Mary Magdalene kneels humbly at Jesus' feet with tears streaming down her face. In an act of profound devotion and repentance, she uses her own hair to wipe his feet—an emotionally charged moment that adds depth to this religious scene. "The Last Supper" encompasses various themes such as faith, loyalty, betrayal, and redemption depicted through Berruguete's skillful use of distemper on linen technique. This Renaissance-era painting serves as a testament to Spanish artistry and its rich religious heritage. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured by Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder collection let us reflect upon the significant events that unfolded during this sacred meal—a pivotal moment in Christian history that continues to inspire millions worldwide.
