EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Institution of the Eucharist" a remarkable masterpiece created around 1490 by Italian artist Ercole de Roberti (attributed to). Measuring 29.8x21 cm, this tempera on panel artwork is housed in the prestigious National Gallery in London, UK. In this profound depiction, we witness a pivotal moment from biblical history: the Last Supper. The central figure of Christ presides over a table adorned with bread and wine, symbolizing his impending sacrifice for humanity's salvation. Surrounding him are his loyal disciples, their expressions ranging from awe to contemplation as they partake in this sacred ritual. Yet amidst the solemnity and devotion captured within this scene lies an undercurrent of betrayal. Foreshadowing Judas Iscariot's fateful act, he can be seen seated at the far end of the table, seemingly distant both physically and emotionally from his fellow apostles. Through its meticulous composition and masterful use of tempera technique, Roberti transports us back in time to experience this poignant event firsthand. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to each character present while evoking a sense of reverence that permeates throughout. As we gaze upon this extraordinary print from Fine Art Finder by www. bridgemanimages. com, we are reminded not only of the historical significance but also of our own connection to faith and spirituality. It serves as a timeless reminder of Christ's enduring message and sacrifice that continues to resonate with
