Holy Thursday

Today is Holy Thursday, the beginning of the Triduum. Since I am having my feet washed in church today, I thought it would be appropriate to share some of the images throughout history that depict this solemn act.

Museo dell'Opera del Duomo, Siena



Albrecht Durer, Small Passion: 9. Christ Washing Peter's Feet, 1511

British Museum, London



Giotto di Bondone, No. 30 Scenes from the Life of Christ: 14. Washing of Feet, 1304-06

Cappella Scrovegni, Padua



Tintoretto, Christ Washing the Feet of His Disciples, 1547
