Ludovico Sforza, Duke of Milan comissioned the painting in the year 1494. The painting depicts the moment when Christ tells the discipules that one of them will betray him. The reaction of each disciple is shown in the painting. The Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie is one of the most striking monuments of Lombard Renaissance. The Church was built between 1466 and 1490 under the direction of Guiniforte Solari, only subsequently in 1492 the apsidal part was added by Bramante. In the refectory of the church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, ancient premises of the Court of the Inquisition, one of the absolute masterpieces of history is kept: Leonardo da Vinci s Last Supper. The fame of the building is also due to the tribune of the apsidal part on today s Via Caradosso, added in 1492. The inside of the church with a double series of side chapels highlights the Solari s Gothic background just as the arcades on the two rows of columns. The vaults bear frescoed decorations dating from the birth of the building, rediscovered after they had been hidden in 600. From the apse one goes into the small arcaded cloister which leads into the Old Sacristy, built in 1499 and restored in 1982. The walls are lined with wooden cabinets decorated with rich inlay, above which one can see remains of hand painting and fragments of detached frescoes that date back to the construction of the building. Leonardo s Last Supper. You will find this great work of art that Leonardo da Vinci was commissioned to paint by Ludovico il Moro, from 1496 to 1498, in the refectory of the Dominican convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie, outside the church a door, on your right, will lead you into it. The Last Supper painted by Leonardo da Vinci is ingeniously devised as an expansion of the perspective of the space in which it is set (1495-1497). It is one of the most famous works of art in the world, and has long been an icon of Western civilization. The scene portrays the moment in which Jesus tells his disciples that one of them is about to betray him. The Last Supper is included in the UNESCO s list. On the opposite wall there is a Crucifixion dating of the same period by Giovanni Donato Montorfano.
