The portrait represents the scene of The Last Supper of Jesus with his 12 disciples. Leonardo specifically portrayed the reaction given by
each of Twelve Disciples when Jesus announced that one of them would betray him. All twelve apostles have different reactions to the news,
with various degrees of anger and shock. In the Last Supper da Vinci, Judas is wearing green and blue and is in shadow, looking rather withdrawn and taken aback by the sudden revelation of his plan. He is clutching a small bag, perhaps signifying the silver given to him as payment to betray Jesus, or perhaps a reference to his role within the 12 disciples as treasurer. He is also tipping over the salt shaker at Last Supper meal. This may be related to the near-Eastern expression to "betray the salt" meaning to betray one's Master. Judas is the only person to have his elbow on the table and his head is also horizontally the lowest of anyone in the painting. In common with other depictions of Last Supper portrait from this period, Leonardo seats the diners on one side of the table, so that none of them have their backs to the viewer. Most previous depictions excluded Judas by placing him alone on the opposite side of the table from the other people at the table or placing halos around all the disciples except Judas. Leonardo the Last Supper instead has Judas lean back into shadow. Painting of Last Supper was painted on a dry wall rather than on wet plaster, so it is not a true fresco, da Vinci sealed the stone wall with a layer of pitch, gesso and mastic, then painted Last Supper portrait onto the sealing layer with tempera. Because of the method used, the piece began to deteriorate a few years after Leonardo finished it. During World War II the refectory was struck by a bomb; protective sandbagging prevented the Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci from being struck by bomb splinters, but it may have been damaged further by the vibration. From 1951 to 1954 another clean-and-stabilise restoration was undertaken. The work after restoration. |

Last Supper Portrait by Other Masters
The Last Supper has been a popular subject in
Christian art. Depictions of the meal in Christian art date back to early Christianity and can
be seen in the Catacombs of Rome. Byzantine artists frequently focused on the Apostles receiving Communion, rather than the reclining figures
having a meal. By the Renaissance, Lord's Last Supper was a favorite topic in Italian art. |

Analysis of The Last Supper da VinciLeonardo's stylistic innovations are even more apparent in The Last Supper, in which the artist represented a traditional theme in an entirely new way. Instead of showing the 12 apostles as individual figures, the paintings artist grouped them in dynamic compositional units of three, framing the figure of Christ, who is isolated in the center of the picture of Last Supper meal. Seated before a pale distant landscape seen through a rectangular opening in the wall, Jesus - who is about to announce that one of those present will betray him - represents a calm nucleus while the others respond with animated gestures. In the monumentality of the scene and the weightiness of the figures, da Vinci Last Supper reintroduced a style pioneered more than a generation earlier by Masaccio, the father of Florentine painting. |

Questions about Last SupperQuestion: Who is holding the knife in the Last Supper da Vinci? Answer: It's Peter, he looks angry and is holding a knife pointed away from Christ, perhaps foreshadowing his violent reaction in Gethsemane during Jesus' arrest. Question: Why do Christians keep eating the Last Supper Meal? Answer: 1 Corinthians 11:23-25 and Luke 22:19-20, the Lord Jesus said that the bread is his body, the cup is the new covenant in his blood. To have lord's Last Supper, 'this do in remembrance of me.’ Question: What are the names of the 12 apostles on the Last Supper Vinci? Answer: 1. Simon (called peter), 2. his brother Andrew, 3.James son of Zebedee, 4. his brother John son of Zebedee, 5.Philip, 6.Bartholomew, 7.Thomas, 8.Matthew the tax collector, 9.James son of Alphaeus, 10. Thaddaeus, 11.Simon The Patriot, 12. and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus. Question: What's the difference between "The Passover" and "The Last Supper"? Answer: Passover is a time that Jews celebrate the Exodus from Egypt and the freedom of slavery. In commemoration, for the duration of Passover no leavened bread is eaten, for which reason it is called "The Festival of the Unleavened Bread". Matzo (flat unleavened bread) is a symbol of the holiday. Jesus has his last supper and is executed not on the day Nisan 15 (the first night of Passover) but on Nisan 14, when the Passover lambs were slaughtered. Presumably the author preferred this date because it associated Jesus as the Lamb of God with the sacrificial lambs of Passover. Do you have other questions or interesting information about Monalisa?
