ANDREA DEL SARTO: The Last Supper

🖼 The Last Supper, 1520-25
Fresco
525 × 871 cm
Florence, Italy

Soft light bathes thirteen figures arranged in measured harmony across a refectory wall, their gestures restrained yet emotionally charged. Del Sarto's balanced composition and psychological depth established a revolutionary bridge between High Renaissance ideals and Mannerist innovation, influencing generations of Florentine painters.
