Maundy Thursday Art

In honor of L'Ultima Cena ... *



No, I'm not a 'Da Vinci Code' conspiracy sort. (But, yes, the apostle next to the Lord does look like a girly-man.) Nor do I embrace the idea of Jesus as a hippie-looking guru.

It's just that as works of art by Old Masters go ... well, this one is in a class by itself. It's iconic and mass produced and frequently parodied. For all that (and more) Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper" remains a one-of-kind reminder of a sacred event worth remembering.
