The 1940s was an almost apocalyptical period of two totalities and one war, the time of the absence of freedom and of constant danger, when hundreds of thousands of refugees were streaming across Europe and outside it unwanted, when millions were abducted and murdered. And what about the arts? The only realm of the real creative freedom remains within the artists themselves, within their desires and anger.

The Eucharist is one of the fundamental parts of the Cult of Christianity, and through it the Last Supper of Jesus Christ is commemorated by the partaking of wine and bread and giving thanks for salvation. The Eucharist has greatly inspired visual arts due to its special and essential place in Christian life.
