"The Last Supper" by Leonardo da Vinci, painted between 1495 and 1498, is one of the most iconic frescoes of the Renaissance. It is located in the refectory of the Convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan, Italy.
The artwork depicts the dramatic moment when Jesus announces that one of his disciples will betray him, capturing the emotional reactions of each figure.
Historical Context: Leonardo was commissioned by Ludovico Sforza, Duke of Milan, to decorate the convent. Instead of using traditional fresco techniques, Leonardo experimented with a mixture of oil and tempera on dry plaster to achieve greater detail and vibrancy. Unfortunately, this method proved less durable, and the painting began to deteriorate soon after its completion.
Impact and Legacy: Despite its conservation challenges, "The Last Supper" remains a masterpiece of Western art, celebrated for its innovative technique and emotional depth. It has inspired countless interpretations and analyses, solidifying Leonardo’s reputation as a genius artist and keen observer of human behavior.
