#STEEMGIGS: Til (Today I learned) About: The Original Last Supper Painting Short History And Conspiracy Theories

"Learning is the only thing the mind never exhausts, never fears and never regrets." ~Leonardo Da Vinci

Hello Steemit 👋

Milan is not just Italy's fashion capital but also well known for art. The city is home to the original Last Supper painting, one of Leonardo Da Vinci's greatest masterpeice and just across the road is his vineyard and house where he lived while painting the last supper known as Casa Degli Atellani - La Vigna Di Leonardo.

SHORT HISTORY & CONSPIRACY THEORIES

The Last Supper measures 460 cm × 880 cm (180 in × 350 in) and covers an end wall of the dining hall at the monastery of Santa Maria delle Grazie.
Leonardo started the painting in 1495 and completed it in 1498.
It depicts a famous scene from Holy Thursday, in which Jesus and his Apostles sharing a final meal before his death and resurrection. During the dinner, Jesus revealed that one of his disciples (Judas) would betray him and hand him over to the authorities for execution.
Leonardo da Vinci’s painting is not the only version of The Last Supper. All earlier versions of the scene paint Jesus and disciples each with a halo But da Vinci's version omits this feature, implying they are common men & experts say this suggests the artist was indicating that Jesus was mortal.
Dan Brown Theory who popularized the Da Vinci Code suggests that the person seated to Jesus's right in da Vinci's depiction of The Last Supper is Mary Magdalene & not John as most scholars believe.
Mario TaddeiTheory, a Milan-based inventor and expert of Da Vinci's work who spent 15 years analyzing the artist’s work suggest that the people Da Vinci depicted in the painting are common simple men and not saints, implying that Jesus too was a mortal.

And that are just some of those conspiracy theories you probably didn't heard yet.

What do you think of this conspiracies? I would love to hear it.

Yea...I've heard about these theories for awhile, and frankly--even though I'm a conspiracy buff--I don't see anything in it. To me, you could make equally "compelling" theories about what God Himself is trying to tell us based on shapes in the latest passing cloud bank...lol...

Yes, I've wrote about some of it before in my old account that was hacked awhile ago and this are just more of those interesting conspiracies I thought of writing as I've never seen a similar post yet on Steemit.

Thanks for the engaging comment 😉
