Description : L'Ultima Cena

Oil on canvas. The sacred representation follows the traditional representative canons of this subject: the long transversely arranged table is presided over in the center by Christ, who is announcing to the apostles the imminent betrayal by one of them; while all the other apostles are turned toward the Master in the gesture of asking if the accusation concerns them ("Sono forse io?"), Judas, in the foreground on the left, turns his back to Jesus with a gesture of desperation, while he clutches in his hand the bag of thirty pieces of silver, the price of the betrayal. At the bottom center, in front of the table, a small dog looks at the traitor: the animal symbol of fidelity perhaps wants to be the last attempt to stop Judas, before definitively committing the betrayal. Restored and relined, the painting is presented in a period frame. L
