Da Vinci Six Months

Leonardo's "Last Supper" is among the most famous
paintings in the world. In its monumental
simplicity, the composition of the scene is
masterful; the power of its effect comes from the

not choose the portrayal of the traitor Judas
customary in the iconographic tradition; he
portrayed, rather, that moment of highest tension
as related in the New Testament, "One of you which
earth with me will betr...
