EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment during the Last Supper, as depicted in the 15th-century Italian School's vellum manuscript. Fol. 99v showcases Christ announcing to his apostles that one among them will betray him. The scene unfolds around a table where Jesus and his disciples are gathered for their final meal together. In this image, we witness John, the beloved apostle, leaning towards Jesus with concern etched on his face. His posture reflects both loyalty and distress as he absorbs the shocking revelation from Christ. The other apostles surrounding the table appear equally absorbed in this pivotal moment of biblical history. The intricate details of this manuscript come alive through its use of vellum, a fine parchment made from animal skin. Every stroke of ink brings depth and texture to each figure present at this sacred gathering. The composition invites us into an intimate space where faith collides with human frailty. It reminds us that even amongst those closest to Him, Jesus faced betrayal and treachery—a reminder of our own capacity for both righteousness and sin. As we contemplate this remarkable artwork from Biblioteca Reale in Turin, Piedmont, Italy, it serves as a timeless testament to the enduring power of biblical narratives and their ability to resonate across centuries.
