Charles de la Fosse (1636; 1716) Jesus performing the Last Supper. Oil on canvas and original frame 82 x 66 cm Frame 103 cm by 84 cm I would like to thank Madame Clémentine Gustin-Gomez for confirming the autograph character of this painting after a direct examination. In her work, Clémentine Gustin-Gomez cites a painting mentioned and now missing which could, with all due reservations, be our painting (C. Gustin Gomez, Charles de La FOSSE (1636-1716), Dijon, 2006, PP.31): Under the number PP. 31: The Last Supper located next to the high altar at the church of Saint-Pierre-des-Arcis, in Paris; seized during the Revolution; mentioned by A. LENOIR, November 16, 1793, as an object entered into the Temporary Depository of Monuments The Last Supper The Last Supper, also known as the Lord&39;s Supper or Last Meal, commemorates the last meal of Jesus Christ with his disciples before his crucifixion, as described in the Gospels of the New Testament of the Bible. During the Last Supper, Jesus shared the bread and wine with his disciples, identifying them as his body and blood. This is considered a symbol of Jesus&39; sacrifice for the salvation of humanity. In many Christian traditions, the Last Supper is celebrated regularly during a religious service called the Eucharist. The Last Supper is often depicted in Christian art. To name but one, Leonardo da Vinci&39;s The Last Supper. This iconic depiction shows Jesus and his disciples seated at a table during the Last Supper. Charles de la Fosse (1636; 1716) Charles de La Fosse was born on June 15, 1636 in Paris and died on December 13, 1716. He was an early student of Le Brun, with whom he collaborated in the 1650s at the Saint-Sulpice seminary and the Hôtel Lambert. From 1658 to 1663, he stayed in Rome, Parma and for a long time in Venice, whose influence he would always bear. After his return to Paris, Le Brun employed him at the Tuileries, then in the grand apartment at Versailles. La Fosse was admitted to the Academy in 1673 (The Rape of Proserpine), of which he became director in 1707 thanks to the support of Hardouin-Mansart. He will paint various easel paintings for the Grand Trianon, for Marly, for Meudon, Versailles… La Fosse&39;s favorite subjects were often of mythological or religious inspiration, he is also a great decorator, whose art is very different from Le Brun or a contemporary like Jouvenet. He produced numerous paintings for churches and palaces, including frescoes. His style developed over time, moving from a more classical and rigid treatment to more dynamic and expressive compositions. He does not intervene, or more precisely imposes himself by example, in what has been called the quarrel of colors or the quarrel between ancients and moderns which opposes from the 1670s, the tradition of the 17th century, faithful to the art of Poussin where the painted work is built on the drawing, to the so-called moderns where the importance of the drawing fades in favor of the choice and the implementation of colors. His works established him as the master of the moderns, paving the way for 18th-century painting. Charles de la Fosse was appointed First Painter to the King in 1685.
