At the centre of The Supper at Emmaus by Caravaggio we see Christ 1.by two of his apostles and 2.over by a servant.
This is the day of the Resurrection. That morning the apostles 3.the empty tomb and, 4., many of them left the city. On the road to Emmaus, these two apostles encountered a stranger and walked with him and told him of their day. And it was only at dinner, and only when Christ blessed the bread in his traditional way, that they recognised who he was. Unusually, Caravaggio depicts Jesus without a beard and that’s why, of course, they don’t recognise him immediately. And we 5.him immediately and this is Caravaggio’s way of 6.the viewer in this mystery.

Both the basket that 8.on the edge of the table and the outthrust arm of the apostle seem 9.into our space and 10.us in so that we feel a part of this realisation as well.

Criticism did not cloud Caravaggio's success, however. His reputation and income increased, and he began 15.by many. The despairing bohemian of the early Roman years had disappeared, but, although he moved in the society of cardinals and princes, the spirit was the same, still 16.to wrath and riot. In 1603 he 17.on the complaint of another painter and released only through the intercession of the French ambassador. In April 1604 he 18.of throwing a plate of artichokes in the face of a waiter, and in October he was arrested for throwing stones at the Roman Guards. In May 1605 he was seized for misuse of arms, and on July 29 he had 19.Rome for a time because he 20.a man.
