The Wedding at Cana

Duccio's The Wedding at Cana presents a crowded banquet scene with Mary and Jesus at the left, both crowned with halos, as a line of guests and apostles gathers along a long table covered by a richly patterned cloth. In the foreground and along the table are pottery vessels and cups, while an architectural facade with arches frames the scene, giving a shallow, stage-like depth. The work uses a bright, jewel-like palette dominated by blues, reds, and greens with gold accents, and it embodies the Sienese Gothic style with frontal figures, decorative patterning, and an emphasis on narrative clarity over naturalistic space.
