Feast in the House of Levi (Last Supper)

"Feast in the House of Levi" (1573), by Italian painter Paolo Veronese, is one of the largest canvas Oil paintings of the 16th century, measuring 555 cm by 1,309 cm. Originally created for the refectory of the Basilica di Santi Giovanni e Paolo, it depicts a grand, lively religious painting of the Last Supper, but with a humorous and elaborate twist typical of Mannerism (late renaissance). Veronese’s masterful use of Oil techniques and ambitious composition highlight the complexities of religious themes through vibrant figures and dynamic scenes.
