Did you know?
The Last Supper stands as Christianity's most solemn meal—Jesus's final dinner with his twelve apostles before his crucifixion, during which he instituted the Eucharist by breaking bread and sharing wine. Depicted countless times across art history, this moment embodies themes of sacrifice, communion, betrayal, and grace. Leonardo da Vinci's 15th-century mural in Milan transformed the scene into a study of human emotion and divine purpose, with each apostle's reaction to Christ's announcement of betrayal rendered in gesture and expression. That work became the template for countless devotional and artistic interpretations across centuries and media.
