...escape from prison - his palette and his configurations of space became more subdued. His figures begin to flicker and dematerialize. Pagan motifs disappear; religious scenes multiply. Bloodshed and death turn up everywhere. You can grasp his evolution in the distance that separates the 1601 version of The Supper at Emmaus, which belongs to the National Gallery, and a version completed five years later, soon after he fled Rome. Both focus on the moment of Christ's appearance before two astonished disciples on the day of his resurrection. The London Supper is a work of high theater, produced...

The front page of The Crimson on January 24 showed five Greenough residents sitting together in the Quincy dining hall, gabbing only among themselves as they chowed down their supper.

Like a Last Supper print on the dining-room wall, Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ--on DVD this week, untainted by extras--is sure to be a must-own for millions of Christians. But maybe not a must-watch. In a theater, viewers were riveted to their seats watching the Godman's ordeal. At home, many will squeamishly fast-forward through this edifying gauntlet of Kick-the-Christ...
