DÜRER, Albrecht: The Large Passion: 9. Last Supper

Last Supper Albrecht Dürer's woodcut captures one of Christianity's most pivotal moments with the meticulous detail and dramatic intensity characteristic of Northern Renaissance printmaking. Created around 1510 as part of his ambitious *Large Passion* series, the composition demonstrates Dürer's masterful ability to combine emotional depth with technical precision, arranging the apostles in a crowded, psychologically charged scene that emphasizes both intimacy and impending tragedy. This monumental series of woodcuts established Dürer as a revolutionary printmaker whose works rivaled painting in their sophistication and helped elevate the medium to new artistic heights across Europe.
