De Real facts on de Last Supper!! Part-I
You can see the painting of the Last Supper in Milan, in the convent of S. Maria delle Grazie. The last restoration made it much brighter and “barer” than it was before. So much so that to see it as a whole, it’s easier to look at a printed reproduction.
Dan Brown referred to it in his novel "The Da Vinci Code” as proof of the fact that Leonardo wanted to send us a secret message. The apostle to the right of Christ has a somewhat feminine appearance and in the novel is described as Mary Magdalene.
2) Thirteen people at the table :
3) But how many hands are there?
Like many others before him, Dan Brown quoted the legend based on the wrong number of hands. Look carefully and you’ll see that they all belong to their proper owners.
4) A table for thirteen, please!
Here we have highlighted each pair of hands and used a number to identify which of the 13 people they belong to.1 Bartholomew, 2 James the Less, 3 Andrew, 4 Judas, 5 Peter, 6 John,7 Jesus, 8 James the Great, 9 Thomas, 10 Philip, 11 Matthew, 12 Thaddeus and 13 Simon the Zealot.
Where’s the mystery? Didn’t they say there were more hands than people? Look carefully and count again. They’re all there: Thomas has one of his hands immediately below James the Great’s left hand.
