About the piece
Painted around 1650 by the Liégeois master Gérard Douffet, this Baroque work presents the Last Supper with intense dramatic flair. The figures are arranged in a dynamic, reclining posture around a low table, a composition framed by heavy, draped curtains that enhance the sense of sacred theater. The painting showcases the bold lighting and psychological depth characteristic of the Caravaggisti tradition.
