Supper at Emmaus is an undated oil on canvas painting by the Dutch or Flemish painter Matthias Stom.
[1] The painting depicts the scene described in the Gospel of Luke, when the Emmaus disciples recognize Jesus when He was breaking the bread.
The scene takes place in a very dark room, illuminated only by a candle, at the center of the composition, on the table.
A servant, who carries a dish, not mentioned in the Gospel of Luke, also witnesses the scene with amazement.
A considerable part of the painting lies in darkness, surrounding the scene; it contributes to accentuate the sense of wonder of the apparition as is being witnessed by the three men.
