da Vinci's "Last Supper”

I was fortunate to see, in person, the "Last Supper" in the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, Milan, Italy. It is an enormous work of art that is so priceless that only a handful of people are allowed into the climate controlled room to view the mural painting behind glass. It is the only work of art in the room.

I am reminded of my time there on this Holy Thursday of 2012.
