Pop Culture Meets the Last Supper

Last_Supper-01

Our friends at Popped Culture have put together the ultimate collection of Last Supper Images, including over 100 versions of the famous painting. Apparently artists on the internet have taken to customizing the Last Supper with their own favorite characters. The practice has even expanded to television shows, using the image both on screen, and in advertising. Popped Culture has collected them all, and documented each of the characters that you see depicted.

“Leonardo da Vinci’s 15th century depiction of Jesus announcing that one of his 12 disciples would betray him is so ingrained in our culture that it has been co-opted by those wishing to give weight to their parodies, tributes and caricatures.”

We have selected some of our favorites to share with you here, but make sure you check out their entire collection.
