Another Last Supper

This, the latest version of Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper, is by Lorna May Wadsworth, who sees Jesus as a soulful Nubian and his disciples as "...a rock and roll band or a group of deeply political idealistic young guys". All 12 feet of it is on show in the Crypt of St Martin-in-the-Fields in Trafalgar Square until 3 April. Then it moves to its permanent home: St George's Church, Nailsworth, Gloucestershire.

Wow, this painting is amazing. The artist has captured all the drama of the moment, and the attention to religious details is marvellous. What a talented lady.
