Art historians now think that Jesus and friends were eating eels and oranges at the famous last supper, not bread and wine. In honor of that revelation, I've compiled some of the remakes that have been done of Leonardo da Vinci's 15th-century masterpiece 'The Last Supper.'
Some of these are brilliant, but I still feel that they are a creative shortcut. The original da Vinci work depicted Jesus as he announced that one of his 12 disciples would betray him.
Make sure you check out who gets to be Judas and Jesus in each of these.
