EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts Domenico Ghirlandaio's masterpiece, The Last Supper, created between 1449 and 1494 in Florence, Italy. Ghirlandaio, born as Tommaso di Domenico Bigordi, was a prominent painter of the Early Renaissance period. He was known for his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture the human form with realism and emotion. The Last Supper is one of Ghirlandaio's most famous works and is located in the St. Mark's Convent in Florence. It is a large fresco that measures approximately 13.6 x 27.9 meters. The scene depicts Jesus and his twelve apostles gathered for their final meal before his crucifixion. Ghirlandaio's interpretation of the Last Supper is unique in that he includes portraits of several prominent Florentine families, including the Strozzi and the Medici, in the guise of the apostles. The print showcases the intricacy and detail of Ghirlandaio's brushwork, with each figure rendered with lifelike accuracy. The use of perspective and the interplay of light and shadow create a sense of depth and three-dimensionality. The overall effect is one of realism and emotional intensity, making The Last Supper a seminal work of the Renaissance period. The Last Supper is an important historical artifact that provides insight into the artistic and cultural milieu of Florence during the late 15th century. It is a testament to Ghirlandaio's skill as a painter and his ability to capture the essence of human emotion and experience. This print is a valuable addition to any collection of Renaissance art or Italian history.
