EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures "The Last Supper" masterpiece by Henry Holiday, created in 1898. The opus sectile reredos of the east wall of St Chads Church in Kirkby serves as a stunning backdrop for this iconic scene. The photograph, featured in The Studio Volume 46 publication from 1909, showcases the intricate details and vibrant colors that bring this religious gathering to life. In this image, we see a group of men seated around a table inside the church at nightfall. This momentous banquet holds great significance within Christianity as it depicts Jesus Christ sharing his last meal with his disciples before his crucifixion. Amongst the apostles present are Judas Iscariot and Simon Peter, who play pivotal roles in biblical narratives. Saint John the Baptist is also depicted alongside Jesus Christ himself. Each portrait exudes an aura of devotion and contemplation. Henry Holiday's artistic prowess shines through as he masterfully captures every nuance of emotion and expression on each figure's face. The panoramic photography allows us to fully immerse ourselves in this profound moment from the late nineteenth century. With its rich historical context and spiritual symbolism, this print serves as a testament to both Henry Holiday's talent as an artist and St Chads Church's cultural heritage within Merseyside. It offers viewers a glimpse into a significant event that has shaped Christian beliefs for centuries to come.
