Резюме

Three disciples are missing from Holbein's painting. They may have been lost when the work was damaged during the Reformation's Iconoclasm in Basel. At the same occasion, Jesus' head was sawed from the altar piece (to be put back later).
Holbein chose approximately the same grouping as Leonardo da Vinci (his version), but used a smaller table and different facial expressions. A common aspect of both paintings is Peter whispering in John's ear.

Panel made of lime tree wood.
