The 13 figures depicted in Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper are Jesus and his Twelve Apostles, his closest disciples. Jesus sits at the center, while the Apostles—Bartholomew, James the Less, Andrew, Judas Iscariot, Peter, John, Thomas, James the Greater, Philip, Matthew, Jude, and Simon—are arranged around him. Leonardo depicts their varied reactions after Jesus announces that one of them will betray him.
