Jesus’ was the last profile that Leonardo painted in his world famous painting, The Last Supper. This can be attested to by an eye witness whose name was Matteo Bandello. He was born in Italy at Casteluovo, Tortona, Piedont near the end of the 15th century. Again, I came across this information inadvertently. I was in search of Thomas Eakins knowledge concerning the colors that Leonardo used in his painting. Eakins had never been to Milan.

Although he must have seen a color picture of The Last Supper. My search was where did he see it. Today we can see color pictures of almost everything. But back at the end of the 19th century there wasn’t much color printing going on. Although, this being the 400th anniversary of the painting, there must have been articles printed somewhere. I theorized that it must have been in an art publication. But which one? I searched the internet (thank Jesus for it), coming across Scribner’s Monthly, which was a literary publication, and the time period was right. I had previously read that Eakins had been interviewed by this publication on a couple occasions. I though I had it but no luck. I continued to strike out in my searches. Then I came across a site by Cornell University Library and I browsed Making of America Collection. The portion that I researched was art publications. What a wealth of information. Herein Cornell U. had 22 publications archived. I searched every publication that published during the 1890s. I determined that anything before that period was too early and after that it was too late. I thoroughly checked 9 publications. Interesting material but no luck. However, I did come across something in The Atlantic Monthly/vol. 82 /issue 494 (Dec. 1898) a classified add. This was a little close in time but I figured that it was published earlier or else it would be old news. It was a classified add for a 2 vol. issue on Leonardo da Vinci life. The advertisement went on, 24 color plates, etc, etc. The title of the book set was The Artist, the Philosopher, the Scholar, and it was written in French by Eugene Muntz. The 2 vol. edition was translated into English and 500 sets were imported into the US. The 2 vol. set was being offered for $15. Moreover, it was being imported by Charles Scribner’s Sons’. I had to have this set. I searched Amazon. I located a library set being offered for $100. It stated: condition good enough for research. The set was a first US edition and it was offered by, Bequaert-Old-Books. I had to have it. I was very surprised for such good condition of the set. Each vol. weighted about 10 lbs. and has about 300 pages. In addition, I could hardly believe what happened. Only 500 sets of this book were imported into the US over 100 years ago. And now I managed to locate a set just at my moment of need. Amazing. I reviewed the section on The Last Supper , it was not what I had hoped. The picture was there but it was in black and white. Great book but it was a letdown. Yet it did provide a clue…… “Help !!!….if you like what you have read, BOOKMARK our site and pass it along to some of your friends, thus enabling us to build a following.

Great post!
David L, what if a group of atheists/secular humanists formed in Northfield and, in addition to their desire to show Northfielders how they can lead happy and functional lives, they also had a hidden goal to get members elected to public office so as to stop the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance at City Hall and in schools because of its “one nation under God” clause?
That is deep thinking, Trudelle….I like your line of analysis …if you go further on this line of thinking, post it as a gripe…suspicious one but still a gripe…and the situtation bears watching….dan

Clearly, I thank for the information.
I am bookmarking this webpage, this has all of the info I find necessary.
Good post. Bookmarked on StumbleUpon
What a great web log. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of various subjects. I have to first of all give praise to whoever created your theme and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an fabulous article. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of demonstrative and upper-class content is by all odds super rare with the astronomic amount of blogs on the cyberspace.
I have bookmarked, Dugg, and I joined the RSS subscription. Thanks! ….
Between us speaking, I would go another by.

Hello. I like this article . It was informative. I have a blog too, but about eBooks for Kindle
Hello. I read “4.1th.Jesus – TheLastSupper.Info”. It was nice. Thanks, i’m going to stay with u.
Hello Quality info. Thanks
Hi Nice information. Regards
My spouse and i felt now joyous when Chris could conclude his survey from the ideas he acquired while using the web site. It is now and again perplexing to simply happen to be giving freely concepts that many the others could have been making money from. Therefore we know we’ve got the website owner to give thanks to because of that. The main illustrations you have made, the straightforward blog menu, the friendships you can assist to create – it’s everything unbelievable, and it’s making our son and the family consider that that theme is pleasurable, which is certainly exceptionally serious. Thank you for all!
I am very interested in art by Thomas Eakins. Please keep up the site.
I am doing the best I can. Thanks for your interest. dan
Hi thanks for yet another nice and interesting post . Where do you receive your inspiration
