Description

Bible. N.T. Matthew 26.17-35; Mark 14.12-25; Luke 22.7-38. John 13. At the distant end of the table, Christ leans his hand on the sleeping John, and talks to Peter. A well-stocked wine cellar can be seen in the background. Between the two foregrounded figures, a dog (perhaps symbolically related to the betrayal) looks up at the scene
