Description
Admire da Vinci’s painting in Milan’s Santa Maria delle Grazie, famed for detailed characters and dramatic composition.
The Last Supper is Leonardo da Vinci’s famed mural, a High Renaissance art piece in the refectory of Milan’s Santa Maria delle Grazie. It illustrates the scene of Jesus’ final meal with his apostles, where he announces his betrayal. Da Vinci’s innovative use of perspective and chiaroscuro crafts a vivid emotional tableau, with Jesus at the center, and the apostles displaying varied reactions.
The painting’s architectural backdrop and the use of light enhance its depth and realism. However, the mural has undergone significant restoration due to da Vinci’s unorthodox technique, which caused early decay. Despite these challenges, The Last Supper remains a revered icon of Milan’s cultural heritage, reflecting da Vinci’s artistic genius.
