Last Supper in Christian art

The Last Supper is a very important story for Christians, and artists like to show it in pictures, called "art". In the story, Jesus and his friends were eating together for the last time before Jesus went away. Jesus told them that one of them would soon betray him, which means that someone would do something bad to him. The friends were very sad and surprised. One friend, named Judas, did betray Jesus, and that's why this story is so important. The most famous picture of the Last Supper shows Jesus and his friends sitting at a big table, with food and wine in front of them. Jesus is in the middle, and he's holding up some bread and wine, which is important in Christian religion because it symbolizes his body and blood. The picture shows the friends with different emotions on their faces, like some are worried or sad or angry, and it is used to help people understand how they might have felt during the story. Art helps us remember important stories and teaches us about history and religion.
