Painting of Christ seated at a table in a dark arched room, glowing with light, with two companions and a standing servant holding a dish.

The Pilgrims of Emmaus

A dim interior with an arched recess shows Christ seated at a white-clothed table, his head haloed in soft light, as two companions lean in and a servant holds a dish behind them. Warm, earthy brown tones and dramatic chiaroscuro define this painting, a supper at Emmaus scene.
