"Communion of the Apostles" is a renowned religious artwork painted by German artist Albrecht Altdorfer in 1516. Known for his skillful depiction of landscapes and meticulous detailing, Altdorfer provides a profound portrayal of a significant Biblical event in this work. The painting stands as an iconic exemplar of the Danube School's artistic style, characterized by its fusion of detailed landscapes, dense vegetation, and dramatic skies, combined with religious themes.

"Communion of the Apostles" specifically portrays the sacrament of communion, as recounted in the gospels, serving as the Last Supper taken by Jesus Christ with his apostles before his crucifixion. Altdorfer exercises his innovative approach to composition in this piece, where he significantly downplays the architectural elements typically employed in similar historical religious depictions to emphasize the intimate, spiritual connection among Christ and his apostles. The whole setting is nestled within the intricate landscape ascribing to the Danube School's trademark style.

The delightfully mixed hues and the striking contrast between colors in "Communion of the Apostles" display Altdorfer's mastery over color schemes. This painting is a testament to Altdorfer's exceptional ability to translate profound religious themes into striking visual narratives, ensuring his significant place in art history.

As of date, "Communion of the Apostles" continues to be held in high esteem by art historians, critics, and art enthusiasts alike, viewed as a representation of early 16th-century German art. It resides in the Alte Pinakothek, Munich, assuring its place among other significant artworks.
