Mark's Gospel says that the Last Supper, which was the Jewish Passover meal, began when it was evening. The gospel then goes on to demonstrate that this was at just 6 o'clock in the evening, because the author of this gospel divided the final twenty-four hours up into eight segments of exactly three hours each, starting at 6 o'clock on Thursday evening and ending at 6 o'clock on Friday evening. The Passover meal traditionally lasted three hours and ended with singing a hymn.
This was categorized under 'The Last Supper', so I'm going to conclude that you were referring to that. The Last Supper was not bad, however what proceeded the day after and what the Last Supper stood for is rather grotesque.The Last Supper was, in the New Testament, the Last Supper that Jesus ate with his disciples, and the one in which he gave his last words of wisdom. The proceeding day, Jesus was set to be crucified, and hence the celebration of Easter.
Jesus fulfilled the Passover as was given to Moses as an example of His coming. For some Christians, Passover is a memorial of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, "our Passover" which made possible the forgiveness of our sins.
In many ways, the artists that attempted to paint the Last Supper pretty much had to guess what the Apostles looked like; not like there were pictures anywhere. If you had meant "The" Last Supper, try comparing the details of the figures with others in other Last Suppers.
In the synoptic gospels, the Last Supper was on the day of the Jewish Passover feast, so we can say that Jesus and the disciples were partaking of the Passover feast.In John's Gospel, the crucifixion was on the day of preparation for the Passover, so John does not describe a Last Supper, saying just that on evening before, when their supper was ended, Jesus washed the feet of the apostles.
No, Maundy Thursday, is not the day where the trials against Lord Jesus took place. MAUNDY THURSDAY, was the day before Jesus' Crucifixicon, where Jesus, and his 12 disciples, ate The Last Supper.

We celebrate Holy Thursday because it was The Last Supper, and when Jesus washed the feet of the disciples. This was a special day, the day before Jesus was Commended to death. Before all the 15 Stations of the Cross began. Similar to the Last Supper instead of using a long table for Christians, we eat the body of Jesus (the Eucharist) and drink the blood of Jesus (the wine) every Sunday at mass. Every year we repeat these Holy days to show our faith as Christians.
The Last Supper was held on the occasion of the Jewish Passover feast, which in the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) was the evening before the crucifixion of Jesus. The synoptic gospels all contain the story of the Last Supper. John's Gospel prefers the crucifixion to be on the day of preparation for the Passover feast, so John omits the Last Supper account, replacing it by Jesus washing the feet of the disciples.

Jesus was tried, crucified and buried on the day of the Passover.
