The Last Supper
On a recent visit to Milan, the wife and I went to see Leonardo Da Vinci's famous mural painting The Last Supper. Tickets have to be booked in advance and cost approximately €10. A maximum of 25 people are allowed into the room - a former refectory of the Dominican order - at any one time due to its deterioration, and one is allowed only 15 minutes. I wasn't sure what to expect. Although I've never read or seen Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code, I've seen its image in countless tellybox programmes and books. Despite being impressed by this work of art, I couldn't stop thinking about the fact that I badly needed a shit.Labels: art, Italy, Leonardo Da Vinci, Milan

Sculptor Marisol Escobar was inspired by The Last Supper, rendering it as a life-sized, three-dimensional, sculptural assemblage using painted and drawn wood, plywood, brownstone, plaster and aluminum. This work, Self-Portrait Looking at The Last Supper, (1982–84) is in New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art.
