Whenever you mention a painting of the Last Supper everyone always pictures Leonardo da Vinci’s famous mural in Milan, but many, many Last Suppers were painted before his stole the spotlight. Here’s one in a small Byzantine Church in Otranto, on the Achilles Heel of the boot of Italy. The scene is crammed onto one side of a small barrel vault in the church of  St Peter. Christ is on the far left, and the Apostles are arrayed along the table. Judas scuttles below, smaller in scale and on the ‘wrong’ side of the table. He’s the betrayer. It may seem cartoon-like compared to Leonardo’s triumph of vanishing point perspective, but I like it anyway. It does the trick and tells the story, which is all it was supposed to do.
