Painted for Duke Ludovico Sforza and his Duchesses The Last Supper Space and Light Historical Style Subject Technique Symbolism Personal Interpretation This painting is showing some of the religious side to Da Vinci
One of the more notable stories in the bible depicting the last meal he had before his crucifixion based off of John 13:21 Leonardo used a vanishing point centered at Jesus's head
Most of everyone's eyes are focused at Jesus
His painting was not a true fresco Groups of three's (windows, people, etc) representing the holy trinity
Heaven like scenery in windows
Knife in hand of Peter showing power of the Church
Judas has a small bag of money that is thought to be the payment he got for selling out Juses Used vanishing points above Jesus
Shading representing light (Chiaroscuro)
Paintings in the windows are a little out of focus giving depth (Sfumato) Was painted in the high Renaissance Era 1475-1525
Religious theme
Rules of perspective allowed for the creation of realism Biblical scene of Jesus last meal with his disciples
Disorder and uneasiness in everyone
Jesus is relaxed where everyone else is not
