Institution of the Eucharist

Created in the Early renaissance style, it captures the intimacy and solemnity of this final meal Jesus shares with his disciples before his crucifixion. Artists might have initially developed this composition through sketch and study techniques, using pen on paper to plan the scene. The artwork emphasizes the significance of this event in the narrative of Jesus’ life.
