The Last Supper is in Milan and is a mural painting done by Leonardo Da Vinci

It represents The Last Supper of Jesus with His disciples 

From the Gospel of John 13:21

When Jesus had said these things, He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said,

"Most assuredly, I say to you, one of you will betray Me."

Christ Washing the Feet of Saint Peter depicted here

Found in the Bible John 13: 3-5

3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands and that He had come

from God and was going to God, 4 rose from supper and laid aside His garments, took a towel and
 
girded Himself. 5 After that, He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet,

and to wipe them with the towel which He was girded.

You can read more in Luke 22 

This explains all about it and I encourage you to read it.


Jesus gave a new commandment that night

John Chapter 13  Verse 34

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you,

That you also love one another.


Today is Maundy Thursday

Christian churches commemorate The Last Supper on Holy Thursday the Thursday before Easter
