The Museum Dedicated to The Last Supper

Leonardo da Vinci's famous painting composed sometime during 1495 through 1498 is one of the most seminal works of Western art. It is memetic and has inspired many other pieces of art, both reverent and humorous. Eric Braverman of Douglas, Arizona has collected pieces inspired by The Last Supper since the age of 12. AZ Central reports that, in 2021, he opened a private museum showcasing some of the 2,500 works in his collection.

It's called Last Supper Museum. The facility is open to the public Tuesdays through Sundays.

Many of the works are humorous, of course, replacing Jesus and his disciples with figures from popular culture. Other, such as this modernist version on metal, reflect the gravity of the biblical story.

Some pieces have novel concepts. We've played with ships in bottles, right? But what about a Last Supper in a bottle?
