  • Resumen

  • It’s extremely hard to create cover versions of iconic originals, but Tintoretto delivers in spades and then some. To the point that it’s no longer a cover. It’s an original in its own right. From influence, to perspective to technique and mannerism, Tintoretto’s “Last Supper” is markedly different from Da Vinci’s masterpiece while telling the same story.

    While both paintings depict the biblical event of the Last Supper, they differ significantly in terms of composition, atmosphere, and artistic approach.

    While Da Vinci employs sfumato (a technique of subtle blending and softening of colors) to create a sense of depth and realism. Tintoretto, on the other hand, uses chiaroscuro, bold brushwork, visible texture, and strong contrasts of light and shadow to create a dynamism and energy.

    Da Vinci's Last Supper is celebrated for its technical mastery, harmonious composition, and nuanced portrayal of the figures while Tintoretto's Last Supper, on the other hand, is renowned for its Mannerist style, dramatic composition, and emotional intensity. 

    Both paintings have made significant contributions to the artistic legacy of The Last Supper,
