Khan Academy: Van Orley and De Pannemaker, the Last Supper

In this video [3:00] Met director Thomas P. Campbell on game changers in Bernard van Orley and Pieter de Pannemaker's The Last Supper, c. 1524-46 (design), c. 1525-28 (woven). This splendid Last Supper is part of a series of four tapestries illustrating the Passion of Christ. They were designed by Bernard van Orley, a leading artist in sixteenth-century Brussels, the preeminent center for tapestry manufacture in this period.
