Summary/Abstract: The story of the “Last Supper” has been continually interpreted in European painting. Its depictions in various eras contain a specific spatial organization and a unique model of the worldview, characteristic of the period. The depiction of the three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional plane is not just a matter of technique, a science of achieving a realistic space, but a visual model of the perception and comprehension of the world around us and the role of the individual in it. Theatre is an art, for which the three-dimensional space is essential. Scenography creates that three-dimensionality through architecture and painting. The director organizes the movement of the actors across the space, following the conditionalities of the play. The audience sees the image in which the space is composed according to the laws of painting. The subject of this study is the connections between the visual composition, the scenography and the scenic mise-en-scene. The iconography of the Last Supper, viewed as a primary subject matter (factual), according to the paradigm of E. Panofski or as “13 men sitting around a table”, is a cause for a spatial transcription in the context of a hypothetical scenic space.
