À propos de ce contenu audio
A Resurrected Jesus without a beard, fruits of autumn for an event that should have occured in April, the sign of Ichthys and the presence of a scallop shell on the robe of a disciple.
Caravaggiio's " Supper at Emmaus" is filled with Christian symbolism and a painting of extreme interest for symbolists.
But what were these and what did they mean?
The painting derives its name from the biblical event recounted in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 24:13-35).
According to this narrative, following Jesus' Crucifixion and subsequent burial, two of his disciples encountered a stranger on the road to Emmaus. Unaware that this stranger was Jesus, they invited him for a meal. Jesus blessed and broke bread during this shared repast, unveiling his true identity before vanishing.
This moment marks Jesus' first post-resurrection appearance in the real world.
