The Last Supper

Albrecht Dürer

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a group of figures seated around a long table. A table is centered in the drawing, covered with a cloth and various items placed upon it. Several figures are leaning over the table from both sides. Behind them, the background suggests a wall with lined texture and small windows. A round, luminous object is depicted above the central figure. The architecture and furnishings depicted have a medieval or Renaissance quality.
