Last Supper

Template:StubLeonardo da Vinci drew Jesus's Last Supper on a wall in 1498, and it was immediately recognized as a masterpiece. This work represents the central event in Christian worship: the Eucharist. Each Apostle, and Jesus Himself, is shown in very human and expressive terms. There are no halos or signs of saintliness in this painting. Instead, everyone's human side is displayed with emotion and feeling.
Unfortunately the painting has deteriorated along with the wall on which it rests. It has been repainted several times in misguided efforts to restore it.
