Exploring da Vinci’s Last Supper

by Catherine McGrew Jaime

For just a few dollars more, you may also be interested in the new, larger size, full-cover edition of "Exploring da Vinci's Last Supper." When most of us hear the term “The Last Supper” we think immediately of Leonardo da Vinci’s painting. In fact, it would appear on most people’s “most famous paintings in the world” lists – often just above or below the Mona Lisa. And yet, most of us don't know much more about it than that Leonardo da Vinci painted it. Here, in a short book for Leonardo fans of all ages, Catherine gives you the background of da Vinci's painting.

This is an interesting opportunity to experience and learn about the fine arts history of one popular and well known artwork of Leonardo Da Vinci. This short piece explains the details of the painting how it was made, surely taken by the biography of the painter and with her own words Catherine Jaime makes the historical interpretation more lively. I am sure teens can profit from this work in case they do an art project for the school on the same material.
