Yeah, very interesting how some iconography got maintained (like the halo, the winged angels, the dark blue sky for Mary) and other got either applied unduly (I think the last painting is of two old men lifting on a young girl, they wouldn’t have half in European paintings) or forgotten (the knife of Judas during the last supper).

Assuming that’s the Last Supper in the first image then he’s somewhere in it because there are 12 people with Jesus

Jesus ate him.
