The United Church of Canada has unveiled its version of Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper, featuring an entirely new cast of characters.
The piece, which marked not only Holy Thursday but the church’s 100th anniversary, was created to “challenge tradition depictions” of the iconic scene, and emphasizes “support for 2SLGBTQIA+ rights, Reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples, Racial Equity, Disability Justice, and engagement in struggles for peace and human rights.”
I find myself nostalgic for burnings at the stake.
