Abstract

In the history of western art development, there are many artistic creations with “The Last Supper” as the theme. It seems that when mentioning “the Last Supper”, the first image that comes to most people’s mind is still Da Vinci’s “The Last Supper” created in the Dominican Monastery in Milan. The wonderful interpretation of the work also makes such a kind of almost ritual-like picture form lasting, and has become a classic work that has influenced the aesthetics of all mankind. “There is no such thing as art,” Gombrich seems to say at the beginning of his famous book, The Story of Art. “There are only artists.” In the final analysis, “people” is the starting point and core of civilization. Art cannot be separated from “people”, the core of art is “people”. No matter reconstruction or deconstruction, in the process of such artistic creation, we are trying to surpass the inherent impression of predecessors’ classics, so as to explore a broader new world for human art.
