Hi, I am looking for someone to write an article on choose one art piece , and a theory that can be related to that art piece and relate the theory and the art piece Paper must be at least 1250 words. Please, no plagiarized work! However, the theories are inaccurate, in exhaustive, bias and incomplete (Winona State U 1). This paper focuses on “The Last Supper” painting by Leonardo da Vinci and analyzes the art through imitation theory of art. Imitation theory considers art as an imitation of life, thus art resembles actual objects, events or even persons. Moreover, the imitation generates aesthetic response within the audience (Jahn 1).

The painting was done by Leonardo da Vinci in the period 1495-1498 and forms part of famous artworks in the world. Leonardo, an artist, engineer, scientist, humanist, author, inventor, and architect was a great man born 1452 in Italy and died 1519 (The Metropolitan Museum of Art 1). This big fresco like artwork was done on the wall of Santa Maria delle Grazie, Milan city, Italy is a false fresco since the painting was done on a dry wall rather than a wet wall.

The painting is a perfect subject and match for dining hall within a monastery and depicts the ritual meal as a form of religious ceremony among Christians. Therefore, Leonardo’s work imitates the Last Supper where Christ shared his final meal with the disciples before arrest and crucifixion. He tells his disciples that he will be betrayed by one of them and soon depart from them. In the group of threes, various disciples react to the news with group on the far left looking surprised. They could probably think that they cannot betray their master. In the next group, there could be Judas who appears to hold a bag that could contain silver (The Metropolitan Museum of Art 1). Sitting behind him is Peter, the number one disciple of Jesus and who appears angered by the statement. The other person next to Peter is a probably a younger apostle who appears to swoon.
