The artist depicted is not “Holy” and “ordinary” people.
Leonardo da Vinci is one of the most enigmatic figures of the Renaissance.
It has repeatedly called for Holy truly beautiful works. But at the same time there were people who believed that he sold his soul to the devil, for how else to explain his many strange creations?
Legendary painting “the last supper” for centuries dominates the minds of many art lovers. Experts have repeatedly tried to reveal the secret of this canvas, highlighting the different theories and versions.
The expert from Italy, Mario Taddei said that he was able to unravel the mystery of the last supper da Vinci. Despite the fact that the narrative of the work refers to the biblical themes, the artist, for some reason, decided to portray the characters without halos. It is quite strange, given the fact that Jesus and his disciples relate to the Holy.
According to experts, this is the whole secret of the last supper. The author wanted to show the characters of the biblical scenes are not saints, but ordinary people. This painting depicts the mortals and has no hint of anything supernatural or extraterrestrial.
Interesting fact: the prototype of Christ at the “last supper” was the young man who sang in the Church choir. Da Vinci was just amazed at the purity and spirituality of the young man.
It should be noted that the image of Judas, too, was taken from a real person. The sitter for da Vinci became a drunkard, which the artist found lying in a muddy ditch.
