The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci, S. Maria della Grazie
Additional Details:
| Possibly the most famous of Leonardo's works, painted about the end of the XV. century. Has suffered badly from damp, neglect and restoration, but still retains much of the beauty with which the hand of genius endowed it. No other representation of this scene comes so near to an ideal conception of it. Leonardo was the most versatile figure of the Renaissance—painter, sculptor, military and civil engineer, and scientist. |
