Lucas van Leyden's 1521 engraving, "The Last Supper," depicts the biblical scene of Jesus and his disciples at their final meal. The composition is dramatic, with Jesus seated at the center, his head illuminated by a radiant light source, while the disciples are shown in various poses and expressions. The artist uses meticulous detail to render the figures, table setting, and surrounding space, creating a sense of realism and depth. This masterful engraving is a testament to van Leyden's skills as a printmaker and his deep understanding of Renaissance art.
