Purchase a carving of Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper."
The Last Supper refers to the final meal Jesus Christ spent with His apostles before being crucified. The event has been depicted through art, such as Leonardo da Vinci's famous mural rendering. People can view the mural in the refectory of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan, Italy. It is one of the "most renowned paintings of the High Renaissance," according to The Metropolitan Museum of Art. If you know someone who is an art history lover or a Biblical scholar, consider giving a wood carving of the Last Supper as a gift.
Olive Wood Sculpture
Buy an olive wood sculpture of "The Last Supper." The sculpture, such as the one available through Holy Land Treasures Online, is carved from one piece of olive wood by Christian artisan Jeries Facouseh. The sculpture depicts the twelve apostles surrounding Jesus Christ at a long table. The table does not have any food on it, perhaps symbolizing the importance of the event and the importance of the words of Jesus, who revealed to the apostles that one of them would betray Him.
Wood Chalice
Buy a wood chalice that represents the cup Christ used to give Communion to His apostles during the Last Supper. This chalice can be displayed on a bookshelf or in a display case. It also can be paired with other wood carvings that represent the events of the Last Supper, such as a plate for the bread Jesus Christ broke before crucifixion.
Last Supper Wood Plaque
Buy a wooden plaque of the Last Supper that can be hung on a wall. You can commission a plaque such as this with a local wood artisan or order it from an online artisan. Another idea is to carve an ornate wood frame that borders a rendering of the Last Supper that has been fashioned out of metal.
