About The Supper At Emmaus (La Cena De Emaús) – Caravaggio – Christian Art Painting
The supreme quality of painting as an art form is in its ability to distill a place or a time into a suspended moment. A still-life or a landscape takes on vital symbolic value as the scene is petrified in paint and the moment fixed for eternity. The problem of movement, action, and change is the problem that Caravaggio has attempted to grapple with in his The Supper at Emmaus. The painting is, above all, an attempt to capture a moment of transformation. In this case, it is both a physical change and a psychological set of responses, and the result is assuredly successful. The subject is a biblical scene as told in the Gospel of St. Luke: three men are sat eating at a table when one of them reveals himself to be Christ. The two companions were not aware before, but now they see. On their faces and in their body language, the sudden awareness of Christ’s identity. There is surprise and alarm. This transformation is the central conceit of the painting and its dramatic intention.About the Life Size Posters
