The Last Supper is an oil painting by the Italian school from the first half of the 19th century, originating in Italy and sold with its frame.
Description from the seller
Italian school (first half of the XIX) - The Last Supper.
48 x 60 cm (without frame) - 64 x 69 cm (with frame).
Oil on canvas laid down on panel, in its period carved and gilded wooden frame.
The painting depicts the Last Supper, set in an interior marked by columns. At the centre, Christ, his head surrounded by a radiant halo, raises his gaze and his hand in blessing while holding the bread. Beside him, John leans over the table. Around them, the apostles are arranged in close groups, reacting with gestures of astonishment and devotion. In the left foreground sits Judas, gripping the purse in his hand, while on the right an elderly apostle kneels facing the Master. The ewer and basin below allude to the Washing of the Feet. The handling is careful, with drapery in vivid reds, blues, greens and ochres standing out against the white tablecloth. The frame is crowned by an arched crest carved with a cross, ribbons and branches.
