This fascinating print is a reinterpretation of Leonardo da Vinci’s iconic masterpiece, The Last Supper. Created by an unknown artist and marked "Copie de 'La Cène' de Léonard," the artwork is rendered in warm red chalk tones (sanguine), capturing the essence of Leonardo’s original composition. 

Christ sits at the center of the table, surrounded by his twelve apostles, in the emotionally charged moment when he announces that one of them will betray him. The piece highlights the expressive gestures and interactions of the figures, as well as the architectural elements framing the scene, evoking the timeless drama and depth of Leonardo’s narrative.

This print, identified as part of the collection of Prince George of Saxony, reflects the 19th-century fascination with Renaissance art, when copies and reinterpretations of iconic works were often created for study and appreciation.

The use of the sanguine technique—prized for its richness and ability to capture both detail and warmth—imbues the composition with a dynamic yet intimate quality. Framed in a simple frame behind glass and printed by F. Schmidt, Paris, the artwork combines artistry with historical homage, standing as a testament to Leonardo’s profound influence across centuries.

This piece not only celebrates The Last Supper but also represents the enduring legacy of Renaissance art and its reinterpretation in subsequent eras. It is a captivating addition to any collection dedicated to the study and appreciation of classical masterpieces.
