The Last Supper

1565[-]1608

Francesco Curia aporta una energía bulliciosa, casi caótica, a esta escena bíblica clásica, muy alejada de la serena simetría del famoso fresco de Leonardo. Aquí, los discípulos están apiñados alrededor de la mesa, gesticulando salvajemente e inclinándose hacia adelante mientras Jesús anuncia la noticia de su traición. Al fondo, los sirvientes realizan sus tareas en la cocina, completamente ajenos al intenso drama que se desarrolla a apenas unos pies de distancia. Este dibujo parece menos un icono sagrado y más una instantánea espontánea de una cena que acaba de tomar un giro serio.
