The Setting of the Visit

Your guide introduces the painting and its setting before the museum’s 15-minute viewing. A visit inside Santa Maria delle Grazie church is not explicitly included in the current supplier description; treat church sightseeing as a separate visit.

Looking at The Last Supper

Inside the refectory, the guide explains the composition, the figures and Leonardo’s painting technique. The visit provides context for details that can be difficult to take in during a short viewing.

Perspective and Composition

Look at the perspective lines of the painted room and the apostles arranged in groups of three. These elements direct attention toward Christ at the center of the scene.

The Apostles’ Reactions

Look at the different reactions of the apostles to Christ’s announcement of betrayal. The grouping of the figures, their gestures and the perspective of the painted room direct attention toward Christ at the center.

Technique and Conservation

Leonardo painted on dry plaster rather than using the traditional fresco technique. The experiment left the work vulnerable, and its appearance has been shaped by deterioration and repeated conservation treatments.

Cancellation and Meeting Point

Cancellation: the supplier states that this ticket is non-refundable and cannot be rescheduled. Bring valid identification and follow the meeting instructions at the entrance of Santa Maria delle Grazie, where the guide carries a yellow sign.
