The Mystical Supper Framed Canvas Icon

Closely related to the icon of the Last Supper, the Mystical Supper presents the same gathering of Christ with His apostles, yet with particular emphasis upon its sacramental and liturgical dimension, often rendered in a more formal and hieratic style that reflects the manner in which Holy Communion continues to be celebrated within the Church to this day. Christ is shown distributing the bread and the cup with solemn deliberation, an image meant to connect the original meal shared within the Upper Room directly to every Divine Liturgy offered since, the same mystery enacted again and again across the centuries upon altars throughout the world. The icon serves as a reminder that the Eucharist is not a memorial of something distant and past, but a living participation in that same supper, renewed each time the faithful gather to receive the Body and Blood of Christ. This icon is a fitting gift to mark a chrismation, a first communion, or any deepening of one's sacramental life within the Church.

“For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.” (1 Corinthians 11:26)

O Christ our God, who dost renew this Mystical Supper upon our altars to this day, grant that we may approach Thy holy table worthily, and find in it the same communion with Thee that Thy first apostles were given to share. Amen.
